During the week of June 30-July 4, 2025, CBS aired amended repeats of “Beyond the Gates” and “Let’s Make a Deal. Additionally, all daytime broadcast shows were coded as specials on Friday, July 4, due to the Independence Day holiday, each of which was excluded from the weekly and season averages.

For the week, “Beyond the Gates” averaged 1.072 million viewers, slightly below year ago repeats of former time slot occupant “The Talk” (1.072 million vs. 1.089 million), though the latter had concluded its 14th season by early-to-mid June 2024. Considering the network scheduled last-minute repeat episodes of the daytime soap opera, the reasons for which remain unknown, the show performed adequately. 

The two half hours of “The Price is Right” (3.447 million / 3.965 million) and “NBC News Daily (1.118 million) were the only daytime broadcast shows to see week-to-week increases among Total Viewers, while every daytime broadcast series was down year-over-year, with the second half-hour of “The Price is Right” down the most (-249,000) followed by “The Bold and the Beautiful” (2.444 million), down -201,000 compared to the same week last year.

The rebranded "GMA3" on ABC fell to prior averages among Total Viewers with 1.217 million viewers tuning in this week after hitting a multi-week high last week. The news program was virtually on par year-over-year with the title "GMA3: What You Need to Know" (1.217 million vs. 1.228 million).

I hope that's enough for CBS not to try this experiment again.

Good try, CBS... now please spare us these experiments in the future.

Thank you for the article @Errol! 

The above post has been updated with the demos ratings for the week of June 30-July 4, 2025.

Wow; I would rather, like your post says @Errol, that they did considerably well with the last-minute change of schedule, especially in comparison to previous years.
