Ratings Breakdown:
ABC won this atypical Thursday, which featured two NCAA Basketball Tournament match-ups on CBS: Purdue vs. Cincinnati and Hampton vs. Kentucky. But since TBS, TNT and truTV are also telecasting various match-ups in the series, the overnights only reflect part of the equation. National ratings will include the results on the Turner networks.
These first two primetime games on CBS were, however, considerably stronger than the match-ups one year earlier. CBS in primetime last night averaged an estimated 4.6 rating/8 share, which was 77 percent above the 2.6/ 5 one year earlier. Keep in mind that results for any live sporting event are always approximate. For the scheduled game start times (all times Eastern; start times subject to change), locations and respective networks for the upcoming third round of tournament action, click on the following: http://tinyurl.com/ltybfy8
Two hours of “American Idol” on Fox topped the night with a 6.1/10 in the household overnights from 8-10 p.m., and the four half-hours only fluctuated by three-tenths of a rating point (5.9 to 6.2).
ABC opened with veteran “Grey’s Anatomy” at a 6.1/10 at 8 p.m., followed by “Scandal” (#1t: 6.2/10) and week three of disappointing “American Crime” (#2: 4.3/ 7) from 9-11 p.m. Comparably, “American Crime” dipped by four percent from the 4.5/ 8 one week earlier, and that 4.5 rating in the overnights translated into a modest 5.76 million viewers and a 1.4 rating/5 share among adults 18-49 (based on the Live Plus Same Day data). Three-week overnight track for “American Crime”: 6.6/11 – 4.5/ 8 – 4.3/ 7.
On NBC, the 8 p.m. edition of “Dateline,” themed Robert Durst: Inside the Long, Strange Trip,” scored a 4.4/ 7 at 8 p.m. (#3), which was the best in the time period for the network since “Peter Pan Live!” on Dec. 4 (7.1/11 from 8-9 p.m.). With stronger lead-in support, “The Backlist” at 9 p.m. (#3: 5.7/ 9) rose to a five week high. But relocated “The Slap” sunk to a 2.3/ 4 (#3) at 10 p.m.
The CW capped off this third Thursday in March with its tired paring of “The Vampire Dairies” (#5: 1.4/ 2) and sophomore “Reign” (#5: 0.8/ 1), which dropped by an average of 21 percent from the year-ago evening.

:( Not good for Scandal.
ReplyDeleteWeird that Scandal only grew a tenth from Grey's.
ReplyDeleteSo 6.1 is still an option and 6.2 is a winner. Must say i am confused.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell? I thought last week Scandal's rating was a fluke. Did people really tuned out?
ReplyDeleteTVD 0,7 plz
ReplyDeleteWhy is Grey's not a winner? At first I thought that it did bad because of the "Still an option", but it seems to be up, doing its usual 6.1/10.
ReplyDeleteReign deserves a 0.0! Awful episode ever.
ReplyDeleteIs Scandal down again? Not good. Lead-out matters. I've been arguing that for a while now. ABC is missing Murder as much as I am, I am sure.
ReplyDeleteCW seems to have done a bit better. Hopefully VD raises and Reign keeps steady.
ReplyDeleteAC is really bringing the night down
ReplyDeleteIt's boring and the same ol' stories. Nothing new, Plus people didn't want to see the Pervert Dunham.
ReplyDeleteI've read a lot of negative reaction to the last batch of episodes. I've thought the show overall has been better this season than last, but I get what a lot of people are saying - it's gotten very over-the-top and there are virtually no characters left to root for.
ReplyDeleteEventually, people get anesthetized to OMG tv. Those shows don't have the staying power.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely. The sad thing is that Scandal really does have a great cast (not the entire cast, mind you) and many of their performances are now being buried under some silly, silly and convoluted stories.
ReplyDeleteI can definately agree with lead-outs mattering.
ReplyDeleteExactly. As soon as things slow down, people will get bored, as it seemslike that is happening to Scandal.
ReplyDeleteScandal?... In same territory as Grey's and Idol, what does that HH typically translate into?
ReplyDelete22 eps hurt it so much.Plenty of fillers in this season.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, it looks like AC didn't fall much
ReplyDeleteIt really depends on the show, but those shows it will mean 8 million viewers.
ReplyDeleteScandal has gotten boring after the whole kidnapping storyline, in my opinion. Plus with Lena Dunham in this episode, I'm not surprised with the drop. I saw a lot of people saying they won't tune in because of her.
ReplyDeleteScandal is down due to Lena Dunham's guest appearance. Their was a campaign on social media not to watch the episode because they think she is a pervert.
ReplyDeleteOMG what's going on with Scandal? The last two episodes has lost viewers. I actually think this season is great I just hope next week picks up a little. It looks like 2.5-2.6 for Scandal again.
ReplyDeleteI really think the Lawn Chair episode is having an lasting effect on the show. I think it was just too controversial too soon for a prime-time soap. My Fiance didn't believe me when I said this was a bad idea so soon, and that it may cause a bleed in viewers...Again though..these are just my thoughts. It very well could be DST...
ReplyDeleteI don't agree that it's boring but I have to say my favorite parts of the sl was the kidnapping arc. After it ended it seems like that's when people tuned out.
ReplyDeleteI don't buy the DST excuse lol. Because The Blacklist was steady last week and this week it increased a little. The show is on at 9pm, so Greys should be really affected and it actually went UP this week.
ReplyDeleteOlivia being Kidnapped was a complete joke.
ReplyDeleteJust go on twitter and put "scandal boring" in search. People are over it!
ReplyDeletePREACH!!
ReplyDeletePreach
ReplyDeletePeople are even tweeting about this show as much.Last week it has like 140, 000 tweets which is severely LOW for Scandal. It didn't even trend that much worldwide last night.
ReplyDeleteGo GA, almost beating Scandal!
ReplyDeleteNo.
ReplyDeleteMaybe DST and the usual spring drops must've have taken effect on it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to said that, but it's the truth.
ReplyDeleteExactly! The lead character is just not strong enough to continue to carry the whole show.
ReplyDeleteAnd Huck needs to GO! He has become unwatchable!
It's not. This episode was really, really good.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion was really boring and full of non sense.
ReplyDeleteYou may not like the episode but 0.0? Really?
ReplyDeleteIt was a deliberately exaggerated comment.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I don't get it.
ReplyDeleteThat's a huge blow for Scandal.
ReplyDeleteRob is gonna be excited seeing Empire scoring ratings 2.5 times better.
He's going to be insufferable.
ReplyDeleteYou speak Truth.
ReplyDeleteFrom Last week's HH:
ReplyDeleteAnd aforementioned “Scandal” took the 9 p.m. hour with a 6.4/10, which
was eight percent above the 5.9/ 9 for year-ago occupant “Grey’s
Anatomy.”....(American Crime) The overnight retention out of the 9:30 p.m. portion of “Scandal” (6.3/10) was modest at 71 percent.
So last week in the 2nd Half hour Scandal hit a 6.3/10 in HH...This week it's at 6.2/10...So it didn't drop as much in HH.
Tbh I understand why scandal is falling. Their is no direction regarding the plot. I have not watched last night yet but last episode was a complete waste
ReplyDeleteIt all depends on what the 2nd half hour did this week. What if it dropped to a 6.0?
ReplyDeleteThe Blacklist is back to be the no.1 drama in NBC this week.
ReplyDeleteI disagree that scandal was boring. There's no question about there being a season 5. I think season 4 has been great. Except for the Catherine winslow arc im still puzzled about. Last nights episode had many twists and turns. I'm guessing a 2.9 in key demo. U can't satisfy everyone though, people will always find negatives.
ReplyDeleteyou expect a 2.9 in demo when it was a 2.7 last week and it DROPPED this week? I'm not understanding your logic lol
ReplyDeleteI agree. I think the Lawn Chair episode was really polarizing. And the subject matter just too soon to deal with on broadcast TV. Many may have felt it was written in such a way to promote an agenda. I would caution those involved with Empire for next season as well, especially if they are so enthused about getting Oprah on board. Don't get preachy. Just tell a story but don't push a political view or agenda onto the TV audience. They really get turned off by that.
ReplyDeleteAre we getting Top 25 today. We didn't get them last Thursday.
ReplyDeleteThat's really good for Dateline. NBC has to be pleased.
ReplyDeleteAmerican Crime is getting close to being pulled territory.
Wow at Greys being right below Scandal. And good job Blacklist reaching a five week high!
ReplyDeleteBut American Crime is still beating The Slap.
ReplyDeleteDoing a race themed episode was the jump the shark moment. It was horribly received as agenda pushing.
ReplyDeleteI agree with that as well.
ReplyDeleteTrue, but test patterns can beat The Slap.
ReplyDeleteseason 2 also had 22 episodes and that didn't hurt at all
ReplyDeleteIt's not looking likely.
ReplyDeleteActually scratch that, they have just come in. I'll add them to the table
ReplyDeleteTop 25 numbers are being entered. Please refresh
ReplyDeleteI'm also thinking that Idol may be dinging it a bit. I know Idol is not what it used it be, but Scandal had only ever faced Backstrom until the last 2 weeks. And both have been done a good bit
ReplyDeleteYay TVD & TBL!
ReplyDeleteI don't think American Crime is doing well because there are many viewers who probably don't want to watch a show so realistic that they have to sit and think about race relations in America. We see that the Lawn Chair episode of Scandal could of had a negative effect on that show. The media showing incidents across the country and gotten most everyone hyper sensitive about topics of injustice. For this reason, I'm not certain CBS should even pick up For Justice now. I think it will tank with people feeling an agenda is being pushed. I think For Justice and American Crime would have worked well as movies but as ongoing series, I don't think audiences will tune in every week for these deep, depressing stories.
ReplyDeleteExactly. Leave the ripped from the headlines stories to Dick Wolf. Shonda Rhimes gets way too preachy and one sided. It was an agenda and unfortunately, she couldn't see past it to tell a complete story.
ReplyDeletelol I wish CBS would try an episode of CSI: Cyber now on Thursday @10pm and see how better it would perform with 0 competition from The Slap and low rated American Crime. It could possibly build a nice sized audience after Mom.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree. Well said. For Justice has a great cast and a very intriguing concept, but it won't work on broadcast TV. It'll skew older and upper income, both of which CBS doesn't need as they already have a surplus.
ReplyDeletePull me now territory is 0.7-0.8.
ReplyDeleteABC is letting Forever air all 22 episodes, then can stand 11 weeks of Crime.
S2 was the best season.The B613 nonsense is horrible.
ReplyDeleteBased on these top 25 numbers, I say that Scandal probably did the same as last week
ReplyDeleteThis isn't a timeslot upgrade for Cyber, sure, ABC does the same and NBC is dead instead of having PD, but the lead in is not compatible, just like Survivor.
ReplyDeleteBut I know the purpose: everything should be done to save the franchise from its probable death in may.
I saw the episodes. And I don't like to give spoilers. But I will just say that the ending was bad. For those who are really invested in what is going on in the country right now in Ferguson, it would have made you even more upset watching what unfolded on Scandal.
ReplyDeleteThe top25 number dipped too much.It got a 3.6 on 5th March.
ReplyDeleteExactly. Before they end it permanently, CBS has to make sure they did everything possible to save the franchise. And I find it a bit stupid that Elementary is still on Thursday. Battle Creek is tanking on Sunday and Elementary will most likely move there next season anyways. I would see what CSI:Cyber could do on Thursday. Stalker should finish out its last episodes as well.
ReplyDeleteI that is why I think Shonda shouldn't even worry about dealing with another drama yet. She now has to make sure to keep Scandal of high quality.
ReplyDeleteHow does one effect the other?
ReplyDeleteDon't think they'll pull it. Only 8 more weeks left and they best they can put their are low rated repeats.
ReplyDelete0.3 for Reign is awful. Could it drop to a 0.2?
ReplyDeleteSo you think Scandal only dropped .1 from last week? The last Top 25 numbers we had for Scandal was a 3.6, I believe and the final number was a 3.0. I mean if it only dropped .1 this week, good for Scandal lol
ReplyDeleteIt gets 0.3 in Tp25 all the time but still gets 0.4 in A18-49
ReplyDeleteWhen is the last time Scandal had a 2.8 for Top 25? I wish we had last weeks number so we'd have something to compare it to
ReplyDelete2.4 for scandal ouch
ReplyDeleteI think it would be a travesty for CW to premiere The Messengers on Friday night with Reign doing this awful on Thursday. It should get the opportunity of a decent lead. Reign really should be pulled effective immediately and air its remaining episodes either on Friday or during the Summer.
ReplyDeleteUsually in these cases when a top 25 number is so high, it tends to be translate a lot lower in the demos. But Scandals was a 2.8 so I'm assuming that its a tenth or 2 lower in the demo.
ReplyDeleteBig ouch.
ReplyDeleteGA 2.1
ReplyDeleteScandal 2.4
AC 1.2
DAAAAMMNN
ReplyDeleteBlacklist 1.8
ReplyDeleteSlap 0.7
TVD 0.7
ReplyDeleteReign 0.4
tvd 0.7
ReplyDeletereign 0.4
What in the world is going on with Scandal? Its so unlike it to drop 2 weeks in a row
ReplyDeleteFlopmerican Crime is doing awful.
ReplyDeleteOuch scandal, but still good ans bye bye American crime
ReplyDeleteAmerican Flop sounds better.
ReplyDeleteI honestly never paid attention to Reign T25, then. My bad.
ReplyDeleteGo TBL!
ReplyDeletetvd 0.7/0.6
ReplyDeletereign 0.4/0.3
scandal halfs- 2.5/2.3
ReplyDeleteABC Thursdays are crumbling with Greys and Scandal hitting lows and American Flop bombing.
ReplyDeleteThe Blacklist holding good against Scandal.
S&L is definitely doing better than American crime. Worse timeslot, tough competition (TWD and soon GoT) and a weaker lead-in
ReplyDeleteOuuuchh
ReplyDeleteWinners: Grey's Anatomy
ReplyDeleteHonorable Mention: American Idol, The Vampire Diaries, The Blacklist
Losers: Reign, The Slap, American Crime
At least Grey's doing drop as much as Scandal. 2.0+ for an 11 year old show is great!
ReplyDeleteOuch for Scandal. Still doing the job for ABC, but that's gotta hurt
ReplyDeleteGrey's Anatomy is doing amazing for an 8pm drama.
ReplyDeleteI was just actually going to say that ripped from the headlines plots work for police procedurals like L&O, but one this divisive should not be used on a show like Scandal. Tonally it was just weird to come off the outlandish President goes to war over Kidnapped mistress story, to a case of the week episode based on something that is so controversial right now.
ReplyDeleteNP
ReplyDeleteI don't know if AI is an honorable mention; it's doing OK for FOX, but still, less than impressive
ReplyDeleteGA is doing amazingly well this year, even if its hitting lows.
ReplyDeleteI really wish ABC had placed Secrets and Lies here instead of this. We all said American Crime shouldn't have been green lighted for broadcast.
ReplyDeleteVD up isn't a deccent leadin & thurs competition is very tough.Reign may not be dong that good,but it's stable-even last week when VD hit a new series low-and is doing better than Batzb s2.CW supports Reign & apperantley chose to give IZombie the Midseason show proffered tinsel treatment let it go.CW obviously didn't like Messengers.0.4isnt bad enough to get a show pulled on Czw.
ReplyDeleteAt least it has managed to stay above 2.0.
ReplyDeleteNow the question is: will Scandal recover or will stay on mid 2s for the rest of the season? Or even worse, could it fall more?
ReplyDeleteDepends, was last night any good?
ReplyDeleteAgreed, it got more promotion and chances to bring in big numbers, but I guess the audience doesn't seem interested in it.
ReplyDeleteIt's barely down from last week or last year and it is going up against Scandal and GA. Its numbers are still slightly above league average numbers (1.67) and they are the highest rated thing on FOX outside Empire and Gotham, excluding some weeks of cartoons. I say that is more than enough for honorable mention.
ReplyDeleteScandal needds to pick up the pace, I don't feel like there is an end game for the season
ReplyDeleteI really wish CW would have moved SPN to Thursday and premiere The Messengers on Wednesday
ReplyDeleteIt did 1.7 and 1.8, it is not above a 2.0
ReplyDeleteI agree with that, I'm just pointing out that 22 episodes has nothing to do with it, Shonda and company are the ones who decide if they write fillers or not. Season 2 had 22 episodes and little filler, and if they had filler it was good either way
ReplyDeleteSame here.
ReplyDeleteSame. It would have made much more sense
ReplyDeleteIKR! I have not watched last night yet but last week I practically Fell asleep or tbh i was just hoping to get through the episode fast so that i could watch empire
ReplyDeleteTVD went up and Reign matched last week.
ReplyDeleteDST didn't seem affect either show.
Haven't watched yet, so I don't know, but for what I have seen so far, people are not that possitive about it
ReplyDeleteLol, I am looking at the 25 to 54.
ReplyDeleteI thought that it was a little better then last week
ReplyDeleteExactly
ReplyDeleteVD up,Reign steady Thsnk heavens
ReplyDeleteProps to ABC for trying something different, but these kind of shows don't work on broadcast.
ReplyDeleteI am guessing scandal was not any better last night than last week?
ReplyDeleteWow did TVD beat Supernatural this week? Didn't SN get a 0.6 this week?
ReplyDeleteit needs more omg moments
ReplyDeleteIt is way too smart and i think quite violent?
ReplyDeleteAt least Abc had the guts to try out something different, but I believe that this type of show could've been much more successful had it been on cable.
ReplyDeletenope!
ReplyDelete100% agree with you!
ReplyDeleteYep, I have been saying since May that it was better suited for FX or HBO.
ReplyDelete😐😴
ReplyDeleteI found it a little better then last week
ReplyDeleteI wonder how Bones will do next week, given the ridiculous hiatus and going up against the NCAA tournament.
ReplyDeleteNope...it got a 0.9
ReplyDeleteProbably, OMG moments are what got it to be as succesful as it was
ReplyDeletelets wait for the final results both spn started out with 0.7 and 0.7/0.6 just like tvd
ReplyDeleteBoth of them came of hiatus with a 0.6. It will Be interesting to see if SPN can bounce back like TVD did.
ReplyDeletenope 0.6
ReplyDeleteArrow got a 0.9. SPN got a 0.6
ReplyDeleteYay VD up,Reign steady
ReplyDeleteLooks like it might have hit it's peak. Now I am kinda worried about HTGAWM in the fall.
ReplyDeleteI guess. I mean, it hasn't erode that much from last year, but it was still doing 2s at this point.
ReplyDeleteThe question is: at what point is AI still lucrative for FOX? It's kind of expensive considering how old it is and the star power it has.
The ratings are still enough to finance it, but how much can it fall until it stops being lucrative? It's not like AI has syndication to aid it ala SVU
the kidnapping arc was so good but for some reason it seems like they just did it to have some OMG moments.
ReplyDeleteYep.
ReplyDeleteMust have my figure mixed.Sure I saw a 0.9 yesterday.
ReplyDeleteThey need to kill some people.
ReplyDeleteI am not at all. HTGAWM has a loyal fanbase by now and that finale was so good...
ReplyDeleteI believe it's time for ABC's promotional department to start with some kind of crazy promotion for Scandal: #WhoshotFitz? during season 2 got it crazy popular, so if they do something like that again they can bounce back to 3s
ReplyDeleteI think American Idols ratings show FOX that it is stronger on Wednesday night than Thursday. If FOX plans to air it on one night next season, they should choose Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteLow to mid 1s.
ReplyDeleteI think people are used to the multiple OMG moments that Scandal usually offers every week. I guess every show needs to slow down a little to refresh itself back to the OMG moments
ReplyDeleteYeah, the most they can come up with now is Lena Dunham in a terrible wig.
ReplyDeleteGood point, lets wait for next week with SPN, I expect a rise.
ReplyDeleteStill its the first time in well over a year TVD has beaten it I think.
Scandal had a loyal fanbase.
ReplyDeleteI'm also concerned about its viewership being below The Blacklist as well.
ReplyDeleteABC managed to be down 8% year to year despite having a lineup that included mega bomb Wonderland last year. Not good.
ReplyDeleteThe last couple of episodes have been case by case which don't contribute to general plot
ReplyDeleteLost sibling especially a twin will do. ;)
ReplyDeleteMurder has still plenty room to fall.
ReplyDeleteThe good news is that it did good without Scandal as lead in, even hitting 3 in the last half hour, so it seems like it'll be able to stand on its own. And for all we know, it hasn't peaked yet
Tvd/reign could adjust down, i mean the CW has been adjusting up and down all shows this week
ReplyDeleteTrue that, TVD could drop to a 0.6, so both will be level this week anyways in finals.
ReplyDeleteThey need to premiere The Catch in spring next season after HTGAWM ends and hope for the best.
ReplyDeleteWell, American Crime was greenlit and putting it on Sundays would've been absurd on every level. ABC made the right move considering the circumstances.
ReplyDeleteScandal looks like it was damaged by the kidnapping farce and then the bad episode last week. Not really surprised. The kidnapping story should've been used last season to mask KW's pregnancy (instead of cancelling those four episodes). It was an odd way to return from break and it was a disappointing conclusion.
ReplyDeleteGA is the true marvel here. Actually remarkable. TBL is still suffering.
Still has. It has had two bad weeks, true, but that doesn't necessarily make a trend. I am a bit worried too but I think start saying that in the past is jumping the gun here.
ReplyDeleteif they do ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't even know if The Catch should be picked up. I think Shonda should continue to concentrate on making Scandal a high quality drama and not worry about any other projects at this time.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds awful. It shows how much Scandal fell year to year. Not pretty
ReplyDeleteAgree entirely. In an ideal world they would simply extend Murder but since that won't happen this is the second best alternative.
ReplyDeleteExactly! Usually abc does that well:
ReplyDeleteScandal: Who got shot? (When Jake shot James)
Revenge: Who shoots emily?
How to get away with murder: Find out, who killed Sam? Who killed Lila?
I hope for mid 1s.
ReplyDeleteThat reminds me of Indian soaps my mom used to watch, lol
ReplyDeleteScandal didn't fall that much. It fell 17% and it probably adjusts up like it has been doing and reduces this a bit in finals. It is bad but not that horrible, most shows would love this type of year to year trend. The problem is American Crime.
ReplyDeleteAnd that usually works.
ReplyDeleteScandal, Revenge and Murder all benefitted from those promotion work, with all of them coming back higher
I think there's no AI on Thursday next week because of Bones and Backstrom. It's on every Wednesday starting next week.
ReplyDeleteShe is only an EP on The Catch, and ABC will most likely pick it up with HTGAWM being a hit.
ReplyDeleteRevenge sadly didn't benefit at the time.
ReplyDeleteThey scheduled S&L on Thursdays and AC on Sundays last Upfront,but switched them last November.
ReplyDeleteI think they will also pick up Fresh and Blood and air it on Sundays in the fall
ReplyDeleteOh and how about the huge surge by NCAA basketball. last year the CBS games barely registered.
ReplyDeleteI hope they pick up Kingmakers from the revenge writer sallie patrick
ReplyDeleteIt did come back with a 2.3, but it quickly dropped when people felt that it was dragging.
ReplyDeleteI know but I came back huge after the hiatus that time in january
ReplyDeleteYes I agree the swap made sense considering what they had to work with but the mistake was picking up American Crime in the first place. They should have just picked up something soapier that would fit with Revenge and OUAT on Sundays and let Secrets and Lies air after Scandal.
ReplyDeleteFor a show that has trended upwards year to year it is actually kind of awful. And it has fell two weeks on a row. If it continues onward to next week that calls for concern
ReplyDeleteDid people boycott Scandal because of the guest star? Not bad for TVD even though I didnt watch but still know what happened..lol.Reign needs to either change the story line or move to another night.
ReplyDeleteI just hope HTGAWM has a strong sophomore season. There were some viewers who felt that the second part of season 1 was not as strong as the beginning of the season.
ReplyDeleteActually abc Made me happy with how they promoted revenge for this sunday.
ReplyDeleteFor it premiere it did. Remember that it came back to 2.3 thanks to the promotion of who shot Emily
ReplyDeleteABC has a lot of soaps in the mix this year, so it's really hard to guess which one they will order. Revenge 2.0 seems like another show that might be a good fit.
ReplyDeleteAnd Quantico with Priyanka Chopra could attract new audience for them.
The kidnapping arc did well in the ratings 3.6/3,2/3.1/3.3
ReplyDeleteit was after that
