Following a successful first season run on CTV this spring, which saw TRANSPLANT become the most-watched Canadian drama, the series has also been embraced by U.S. viewers since its launch on Sept. 1 on NBC. Currently averaging 5.2 million total viewers per episode, TRANSPLANT is the most-watched scripted series (comedy or drama) on broadcast television in the U.S. In an article in The Wrap, writer Tony Maglio points to strong delayed-viewing lifts for the series, which has seen the largest three-day increases across broadcast and cable for the five weeks that Nielsen numbers are available. Additionally, when looking at L+7 (live plus seven days) data for the first four episodes, TRANSPLANT is among the Top 10 entertainment series overall on broadcast TV. Nielsen data also confirms that the Oct. 6 episode delivered the biggest viewership lift yet with an additional 2.065 million viewers, as TRANSPLANT continues to see weekly L+7 growth across its first five episodes. Encore episodes of TRANSPLANT continue Tuesday, Nov. 10 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on CTV, CTV.ca, and the CTV app with “Birth and Rebirth.” Bash (Hamza Haq) and Amira (Sirena Gulamgaus) settle into a new environment, while at the hospital Bash helps a worried couple expecting their first child. Dr. Bishop (John Hannah) puts Mags (Laurence Leboeuf) to the test by personally evaluating her performance in the emergency department. Meanwhile, Theo (Jim Watson) is surprised by his reaction in the face of an altercation, and Attending Dr. Wendy Atwater (Linda E. Smith) gives June (Ayisha Issa) an interesting case.
