UPDATED with adjustments. Despite minor dips, NBC conquered Tuesday night with This Is Us and The Voice. The tear-jerking family drama created by Dan Fogelman slipped a tenth in its Live+Same Day ratings from a week ago to a night-leading 1.5 in the adults 18-49 demographic, but held strong as 6.71 million viewers tuned in for the latest emotional journey with the Pearsons. Meanwhile, The Voice (1.3 rating, 7.59 million viewers) was down two tenths from last week, while the network’s New Amsterdam (0.8, 4.98M) held steady. The trio gave NBC the nightly victory in the demo.

Arrow (0.3, 870,000) also hit the target last night, returning for its eighth and final season to the CW. The superhero drama arrived was on par with its Season 7 debut and up from its May finale. Elsewhere in the Arrowverse, The Flash (0.5, 1.28M) returned for its second week and ticked down.
