## Key points

- Cupertino more than doubled to 7.17 million viewers in seven days.
- Line of Fire averaged 6.9 million across its first three episodes.
- Delayed viewing is substantially increasing audiences for new network shows.

## Summary

Cupertino and Line of Fire are attracting substantially more viewers after their initial broadcasts, with each more than doubling its audience in seven-day viewing figures. The early results suggest their same-day ratings understate their reach, though the 2026–27 season is only a month old and the samples are small.

Cupertino grew from 3.19 million viewers on air to 7.17 million over seven days, including 2.18 million DVR viewers and 1.8 million streaming viewers. Line of Fire averaged 6.9 million across its first three episodes, up from 2.98 million initially; NBC said its premiere reached 14 million over a month. NCIS: New York rose 82 per cent to 10.25 million in a week, while Eternally Yours grew 68 per cent to 6.94 million.
