Court TV's new original series, 'Interview With a Killer,' premiered on Sunday, October 20, setting a record as the network's most-watched original series debut. The initial telecasts of the series saw a 50% increase in Persons 2+ and a 60% increase in P25-54 viewership, becoming Court TV's top-performing original since Nielsen ratings began for the network.
This achievement occurred despite competing with high-profile sports programming on the same night, including Sunday Night Football, the National League Championship Series, and the WNBA Finals. The previous record for a most-watched original series debut was held by 'Someone They Knew With Tamron Hall,' which aired on March 6, 2022.
The series features investigative reporter David Scott interviewing convicted killers in high-security prisons, with four of the five subjects speaking publicly for the first time about their convictions. This strong performance in original programming contributes to the overall content strength and potential advertising appeal of Scripps Networks.
