The creatively-strong “Modern Family” continues delivering for ABC in the ratings department; Monday’s episode posted another 4.7 adults 18-49 with 11.92 million viewers.<\/p>\n
Last week’s demographic winner for all scripted television, “Family” again positions itself as one of the hottest properties on television.<\/p>\n
Its strong performance, nonetheless, is simply unable to turn “Cougar Town” into anything more than a passable performer. Wednesday’s episode bled roughly a third of its “Modern” lead-in, posting a 3.1 rating with 7.49 million viewers.<\/p>\n
Earlier in the night, ABC comedy “The Middle” was up slightly to a 2.6 with 8.54 million viewers. “Better With You” averaged a 2.1 with 6.97 million viewers. While it is unclear whether ABC has anything else capable of outperforming “Better With You” (the planned midseason entries do not scream ‘ratings phenomena’), a comedy sandwiched between “The Middle” and “Modern Family” should not be performing so poorly.<\/p>\n
“The Whole Truth” closed ABC’s evening with a poor 1.4 and 4.57 million viewers.<\/p>\n
Over on NBC, The Peacock received mixed news. “Undercovers” was still a weak 8PM performer with a 1.5 and 5.88 million viewers, but both “Law & Order” series rebounded from last week’s dismal numbers. “Law & Order: SVU” was up to a 2.6 rating with 8.52 million viewers while “Law & Order: LA” upticked 26% to a 2.4 with 8.06 million viewers.<\/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":[3],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
