Up by 0.3 from last week&#8217;s performance, the number gave the fourth-season series a comfortable lead over lead-out &#8220;HTGAWM.&#8221; ABC&#8217;s 10PM drama matched last week&#8217;s 6.7 overnight household rating.<\/p>\n<p>Among all broadcasts Thursday, &#8220;Scandal&#8221; ranked second behind CBS&#8217; 8PM flagship &#8220;The Big Bang Theory&#8221; (10.5 overnight household rating).<\/p>\n<p>Helpful to the &#8220;Scandal&#8221; cause this week was stronger and more relevant lead-in support. After airing a Charlie Brown special last week, ABC slotted an original &#8220;Grey&#8217;s Anatomy&#8221; at 8PM this time. It posted a 6.3 overnight household rating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"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":[1048,437],"tags":[233,76,2325,228],"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;Scandal&quot; Again Tops &quot;How To Get Away with Murder&quot; (Updated)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Update: While &quot;Scandal&quot; widened its lead over &quot;How to Get Away with Murder&quot; in the overnight household ratings, it did not do so in adults 18-49.
