CBS Daytime Ends the 2018-2019 Broadcast Year with Top Six Shows
Network Has Top Two Game Shows, Top Two Daytime Dramas
and Exciting Changes at “The Talk”
Streak Started in 1986
CBS Daytime once again ended the full 52-week broadcast year as the #1 performer in the daypart for the 33rd consecutive year – a streak that has never been, and will most likely never be equaled. The Network’s daypart features a balance of dramas, game shows and talk, including network television’s #1 daytime program and longest-running game show THE PRICE IS RIGHT, as well as the #2 game show, LET’S MAKE A DEAL. CBS also has the top two daytime dramas, THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS and THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL, as well as the Daytime Emmy Award-winning THE TALK, which has received a new boost of energy in season 10 as Marie Osmond has joined the hosts at the table each day, Sharon Osborne has revealed her refreshed look, and the show unveiled a new state-of-the-art set.
To frame this incredible accomplishment, the following events happened in 1986 – the first time CBS was #1 in daytime:
- The CBS primetime schedule featured “Murder, She Wrote” and “Dallas.”
- The space shuttle CHALLENGER exploded shortly after liftoff.
- “The Oprah Winfrey Show” and “Pee-Wee’s Playhouse” launched on television.
- The musical “Phantom of the Opera” first premiered.

The 2019-2020 season premiere of “48 HOURS” delivered the broadcast’s largest audience for an all-new edition since April 27, according to Nielsen live plus same day ratings for Sept. 14, 2019.
The two separate hours of 48 HOURS: “The Hollywood Ripper” finished as the #1 and #2 non-sports programs of the night with viewers. At 9:00 PM, 48 HOURS delivered 3.36 million viewers and a 0.6/03 with adults 25-54, and at 10:00 PM, 48 HOURS delivered 3.26 million viewers and a 0.7/03 with adults 25-54
Saturday’s broadcast featured Maureen Maher and 48 HOURS’ investigation of Michael Gargiulo, the serial killer known as “The Hollywood Ripper.” Prosecutors say Gargiulo attacked four young women. One of the victims was killed on the same night she was planning to go on a date with actor Ashton Kutcher. For more than 10 years, Maher has been tracking the Hollywood Ripper and the team’s work helped break the case wide open.
Maher’s coverage began in 2008, with the unsolved murder of Tricia Pacaccio who was brutally stabbed and left to die on the doorstep of her family’s Glenview, Ill., home in 1993. At the time, Gargiulo was a 17-year-old high school student living around the corner. Police did not suspect him, but Pacaccio’s family later did.
Gargiulo headed to Los Angeles, and where he went, say prosecutors, attacks followed. In 2001, 22-year-old fashion student Ashley Ellerin was stabbed 47 times. In 2005 Maria Bruno, a mother of four, was also slaughtered, and in 2008 Michelle Murphy was attacked, but she survived. Gargiulo lived near all of his victims.
Maher’s report on the case aired in 2011. Soon after the 48 HOURS broadcast, two key witnesses came forward and Gargiulo was charged with the murder of Pacaccio almost 18 years after her death.
In the two-hour season premiere, Maher and 48 HOURS went inside the investigation that connected police in two states and brought Gargiulo to trial in California. The broadcast took a deep dive into who Gargiulo is and how he got away with killing for so long. Maher has first interviews with his former friends who knew him well and provide rare insight into what makes him tick. The broadcast featured Gargiulo’s acting audition tape and a rare conversation with Gargiulo from jail, where he talks about the charges against him. Maher also had an interview with Pacaccio’s family.
48 HOURS: “The Hollywood Ripper” is produced by Chuck Stevenson, Ruth Chenetz, and Lauren Clark. Doug Longhini, Gayane Keshishyan Mendez and Greg Fisher are the development producers. Dena Goldstein is the field producer. Patti Aronofsky is the senior producer. Nancy Kramer is the executive story editor. Judy Tygard is the executive producer of 48 HOURS.
“48 HOURS: WHAT HAPPENED TO RACHAEL?” IS SATURDAY’S #1 NON-SPORTS PRIMETIME PROGRAM WITH VIEWERS
48 HOURS: “What Happened to Rachael?” was Saturday’s #1 non-sports primetime program with viewers, according to Nielsen live plus same day ratings for Sept. 7. The encore broadcast delivered 3.47 million viewers and a 0.7/03 with adults 25-54.
The broadcast featured Erin Moriarty and 48 HOURS’ investigation into the murder of Rachael DelTondo outside of her home in a small Pennsylvania city and the search for answers. More than a year after DelTondo was gunned down, there are plenty of theories, but no arrests, leaving some to wonder if the case will ever be solved. It’s a case that shook Aliquippa, Pa., and remains the ninth unsolved murder in a city with an underfunded and understaffed police department. There are numerous potential leads for police to follow, including a young Aliquippa High School athlete named Sheldon Jeter and DelTondo’s ex-fiance Frank Catroppa. Both Catroppa and Jeter deny any involvement in Rachael’s death. Local writer and CBS News contributor John Paul says DelTondo was afraid of a lot of people, including the Aliquippa Police.
