OT: Thursday TV Ratings - Scandal (2012) Discussion

Wow! Those ratings are low for a new season premieres. ABC is not winning in the ratings this season. Last season Scandal had 10 million+ viewers in the season 5 premiere, even with NFL Football...

Murder was really good last night. Talk about a cliffhanger. I wish they would move it to 9:00 and put that new show at 10

Grey's adjusted up to 2.5 and Notorious adjusted down to 1.1. What a huge bomb that is.

I wish they would move it to 9:00 and put that new show at 10

ABC would be fools to not move HTGAWM to 9:00. And Notorious is DOA. No point in moving that to 10:00. Reruns of Grey's would do better than Notorious will in these upcoming weeks.

Can't believe after all those pilots, ABC didn't have another show to put in Scandal's place while it was away. Early reviews said Notorious was crap, so it's crappy ratings isn't surprising.

I guess the "boycott Jesse" steam must have been hot air by people who don't watch the show to begin with...

But nothing to brag about with the other two shows. Grey's fans are smarter than the network thinks, they are loyal enough to watch their one show, then change the channel.

I totally missed that these shows came back. Interesting. Yikes @ Notorious. I'm assuming they thought having Scandal's slot and Grey's as a lead in would help but it still has to be something people want to watch. The reviews aren't good. I'll get on HTGAWM this weekend. I've also been hearing good things about Designated Survivor so I'll check that out too.

NOTORIOUS premiere looks even worse in L+3, relative to rest of ABC dramas:

#GreysAnatomy 2.5-->3.6
#Notorious 1.1-->1.6
#HTGAWM 1.4-->2.5
