It averaged 3.76 million overall viewers.<\/p>\n<p>The numbers top the 1.2 rating and 3.69 million viewer mark drawn last week.<\/p>\n<p>They, moreover, rank as new series highs for the show.<\/p>\n<p>The series premiere, which previously ranked as the most-watched installment, drew a 1.2 rating and 3.75 million viewers.<\/p>\n<p>Season one of &#8220;The Four&#8221; concludes next Thursday.<br \/>\n====<\/p>\n<p>For the third consecutive week, FOX&#8217;s &#8220;The Four: Battle For Stardom&#8221; enjoyed an episode-to-episode gain in live+same-day viewership.<\/p>\n<p>According to fast national data posted by Showbuzz, Thursday&#8217;s &#8220;The Four&#8221; drew a 1.2 adults 18-49 rating and averaged 3.73 million overall viewers.<\/p>\n<p>Last week&#8217;s episode drew the same 1.2 demo rating but a slightly lesser 3.69 million in viewership.<\/p>\n<p>This week&#8217;s episode enjoyed a particularly big lift in the 9PM hour.  After drawing a 1.1 rating and 3.42 million viewers at 8PM, it posted a 1 1.4 rating and 4.05 million viewership mark at 9PM.<\/p>\n<p>This week&#8217;s episode, notably, aired days after sexual harassment allegations were levied against panelist Charlie Walk.  Walk vehemently denies the claims but confirmed that he chose not to appear in next week&#8217;s finale (he appeared in this week&#8217;s episode, which was taped prior to the news).<\/p>\n<p>While &#8220;The Four&#8221; is obviously not a ratings blockbuster (its viewership numbers also pale in comparison to those delivered by &#8220;The Voice&#8221;), its stability has been quite admirable.  This week&#8217;s numbers (1.2, 3.73 million) essentially mirror those of the series premier (1.2, 3.75 million).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thursday&#8217;s &#8220;The Four&#8221; was the highest-rated and most-watched episode yet.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":105782,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048],"tags":[255,9898,10404],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Ratings: &quot;The Four: Battle For Stardom&quot; Rises To Series High For Penultimate Episode<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Update: Thursday&#039;s &quot;The Four: Battle For Stardom&quot; received upward adjustments in the final ratings report.
