Most hit network dramas usually air in the 9 p.m. hour because many viewers use the 10 p.m. hour to catch up on old shows. As Josef Adalian notes, “That The Good Doctor has been able to reach such a broad audience in the 10 p.m. hour suggests the time slot isn’t quite as deadly as networks thought; they just need to find the right program.”
