CBS’ Marshals posted strong ratings numbers for its second episode, repeating as the top series — network or streaming — in cross-platform ratings for the week of March 2-8.
The Yellowstone spinoff’s March 8 episode averaged 17.2 million viewers after seven days of streaming and other delayed viewing, according to Nielsen figures. The episode held onto about 83 percent of the 20.6 million people who watched the series premiere a week earlier.
The top 20 shows (excluding sports and specials) for March 2-8 only include one streaming series in The Pitt, which tied for 14th with 8.2 million viewers. The rankings only include shows that released new episodes that week, but premieres such as Netflix’s Vladimir and Peacock’s Ted didn’t make it above 20th place.

Also of note: NBC’s Chicago dramas returned from a few weeks off with a three-show crossover that drew audiences well above their season averages. Chicago Med and PD each scored 10.3 million viewers, and Fire came in with 9.7 million. Prior to that, their season averages were 8.27 million (Med), 7.81 million (PD) and 8.58 million (Fire). ABC’s R.J. Decker had a solid premiere, drawing 8.1 million cross-platform viewers to finish in 16th place.
Tracker finished second for the week with 13.3 million viewers (and possibly more; streaming data for the show is incomplete), and ABC’s High Potential was third at 12 million viewers. CBS had 11 of the top 20 series, while ABC had five and NBC had three.
The top 20 shows across all platforms for March 2-8 are below.
