US and Masters of Illusion Draw Average Ratings in Debuts, Saturday Night Live Ticks Up (UPDATED) Saturday TV Ratings 4/9/22: The Ten Commandments Drops from 2021 but Still Leads, Would I Lie to You? US and Masters of Illusion Draw Average Ratings in Debuts, Saturday Night Live Ticks Up (UPDATED) Rebecca Bunch Monday, April 11, 2022 48 hours ratings masters of illusion ratings movie ratings snl ratings SNL Vintage ratings soccer ratings whose line ratings Would I Lie To You ratings Rebecca Bunch Ratings Analysis: ABC's annual broadcast of 1956 religious film 'The Ten Commandments' (0.33) was a troubling 30% below the year-ago showing (0.47) but managed to beat out all programs airing in the 8-11PM stretch. Assisted by host Jake Gyllenhaal and musical guest Camilla Cabello, NBC's 'Saturday Night Live' (0.85, +0.02) improved by two-hundredths from last week's Carmicahel-Gunna outing. Earlier in the evening, reruns of 'Dateline' (0.23/0.27) and 'SNL Vintage' (0.27) were at atypical levels. Airing after repeats of 'FBI' (0.27) and 'FBI: Most Wanted' (0.22), CBS's '48 Hours' (0.28, +0.05) grew by five-hundredths at 10. Fox stayed uncompetitive with low-rated 'MLS Soccer' (0.14). On the CW, the series premiere of 'Would I Lie To You? US' (0.09) was 3x higher than the week-ago 'World's Funniest Animals' finale (0.03). 'Whose Line Is It Anyway?' (0.11), the season premiere of 'Masters of Illusion' (0.08), and a 'Masters' encore (0.05) filled out the rest of the lineup.

Finals Update: The repeat of 'FBI' (+0.1) adjusted up. The repeat of 'Dateline NBC' (-0.1) adjusted down.
