Final Ratings Update:<\/b> Nielsen’s final broadcast data confirms that this week’s “Quantico” was ABC’s #2 Sunday night program in adults 18-49 and #3 program in total viewers.<\/p>\n
It was the first of the five “Quantico” episodes to miss #1 in both columns.<\/p>\n
Down from the previous week’s 1.6 and 5.299 million viewership total, this week’s “Quantico” posted a 1.5 adults 18-49 rating with 5.105 million viewers.<\/p>\n
8PM drama “Once Upon A Time” (1.6, 5.122 million) led “Quantico” in both columns. 7PM series “America’s Funniest Home Videos” (1.1, 5.338 million) outperformed the new drama in total viewership.<\/p>\n
To the credit of “Quantico,” it is still performing admirably for its Sunday at 10PM timeslot. It also continues to build significantly upon its “Blood & Oil” lead-in (0.9 with 3.768 million viewers this week).
\n==================<\/p>\n
Fast National Ratings:<\/b> For the first time this season, “Quantico” failed to rank as ABC’s top Sunday night performer in adults 18-49 or total viewership.<\/p>\n
Per fast national data, Sunday’s episode drew a 1.5 adults 18-49 rating with 5.065 million viewers. Down from the 1.6 rating and 5.299 million viewership total posted by last week’s episode, the numbers were each ABC’s second-best Sunday night.<\/p>\n
“Once Upon A Time” (1.6, 5.042 million) led ABC’s night in adults 18-49, while “America’s Funniest Home Videos” (1.1, 5.326 million) led in total viewership.<\/p>\n
While the drop cost “Quantico” its competitive advantage over ABC’s other Sunday night shows, it was not an alarming week-to-week fall. “Quantico,” moreover, deserves credit for consistently building on its “Blood & Oil” lead-in (0.9, 3.702 million this week).<\/p>\n
==============================<\/p>\n
Entitled “Found,” Sunday’s “Quantico” was the freshman drama’s fifth episode.<\/p>\n
It was also the fifth episode to rank as ABC’s Sunday night leader in the overnight household ratings.<\/p>\n
According to Nielsen metered market data, Sunday’s episode posted a 3.9 overnight household rating. Up slightly from the previous week’s 3.7, the rating also positions “Quantico” ahead of fellow ABC Sunday night series “America’s Funniest Home Videos” (3.2), “Once Upon a Time” (3.2), and “Blood & Oil” (2.6).<\/p>\n
There is no guarantee “Quantico” also led ABC’s night in adults 18-49; performances over the past few weeks, in fact, suggest it and “Once Upon a Time” performed comparably in that demo. The advantage in households does, however, bode well for another stint as ABC’s most-watched Sunday show.<\/p>\n
