While The Simpsons and Hawaii Five-0 were the only two returning scripted shows to boast improved live+same day ratings, they didn’t do so by much.
The scripted shows would share the spotlight with sports programs Saturday Night College Football and the Fox NFL postgame show The OT, who TVByTheNumbers adds as the two remaining shows to see an increase to their live+same day ratings.
So given that there were only a couple ratings improved scripted shows in the past season, how did the rest of television fare?
Not including DVR ratings (which weren’t factored into any show mentioned), The Simpsons would see a .1 boost with a 5.9% improvement from last year to their ratings and Hawaii Five-0 would see the same boost with a 9.1% increase.
