Nielsen s top TV shows of 2020 on linear networks included This Is Us, Young Sheldon, and the usual procedurals.
Law-enforcement shows like NCIS and FBI topped the list in a year where police-focused entertainment drew scrutiny amid protests against racism and police violence.
The year-end list was similar to Nielsen s top shows of the 2019-2020 TV season it released in May.
Network procedurals once again ruled 2020 across the linear TV networks.
Nielsen released its top TV programs of the year on Monday and the most watched regularly scheduled shows included NBC s Chicago franchise along with CBS s NCIS and FBI.
Usual suspects like This Is Us and Young Sheldon also made the top 10, but law-enforcement shows still dominated in a year where police-focused TV drew scrutiny amid nationwide protests against police violence following the death of George Floyd.
