After several weeks of ranking as network television’s biggest percentage gainer in the live+7 adults 18-49 ratings, “Quantico” slips to #4 on this week’s chart.

Airing on December 6, the series’ tenth episode saw its adults 18-49 rating improve from a 1.2 in the live+same-day report to a 2.3 in the live+7 report. Seven days of time-shifted viewing thus resulted in a 92% ratings boost.

The CW’s “The Vampire Diaries” (+120%), ABC’s “Nashville” (+100%), and NBC’s “Grimm” (+100%) enjoyed greater percentage gains in the L+7 report.

“Quantico” did, however, extend its streak in the viewership column. In rising from 4.390 million in live+same-day to 7.507 million in live+7, “Quantico” received a boost of 71%. Though down from the huge 99% gain posted by the previous episode, the 71% boost was network television’s greatest for the 11/30-12/6 broadcast week.

The aforementioned “The Vampire Diaries,” which improved from a 0.5 rating and 1.314 million in live+same-day to a 1.1 rating and 2.188 million in live+7, received a 67% viewership gain. It trails “Quantico” and ABC’s “Agents of SHIELD” (+68%) as the week’s third-biggest viewership gainer.
