But the network got greedy and put the show on multiple times a week, viewers got sick of it, and ABC wound up killing a popular show through OVEREXPOSURE.

Here's the fun part. Those early number don't include the West Coast because ABC aired it live nationwide so it was on 5-7pm in California. NBC did the usual practice of delaying the broadcast to west coast primetime. So Biden has beaten up without even counting the west coast, which he's winning by so much than it doesn't matter. Final aggregate NBC platform numbers versus total national ABC might allow the Trumps to lie their way to victory, but deep down, Donnie knows that he's a ratings bust.
