========================
Returning from a one-week hiatus, FOX’s Tuesday lineup remained unimpressive from a ratings standpoint.
Airing at 9PM, Tuesday’s “Scream Queens” posted a 1.9 overnight household rating. While up slightly from the 1.8 posted by the previous episode, it remains low by any reasonable standard.
While the adults 18-49 rating, total viewership number, and overnight household rating do not always move identically, the minimal increase in the household number almost certainly rules out big growth in the former two. Adults 18-49 and total viewership data will be published by 11:15AM ET.
— FOX led into “Scream Queens” with “Grandfathered” and “The Grinder.” The shows, which recently received full season orders, posted a 2.5 overnight household rating and a 2.2 overnight household rating, respectively.
The previous episodes garnered a 2.4 and 2.2, respectively.
