Meanwhile, Y&R averaged 5.58 million viewers, up 7% from last year, and its largest audience since the week ending January 31, 2014. In specific demographics, it was up 5% in women 25-54 (2.2/12 from 2.1/12), up 15% in women 18-49 (1.5/09 from 1.3/09), and up 17% in women 18-34 (0.7/05 from 0.6/05), all the highest since the week ending January 31, 2014.
