The 8pm premiere of ABC's Happy Endings shot up by 67% (0.9 to 1.5) among Adults 18-49 over its first-reported Live + Same Day number, while the 8:30pm telecast catapulted 86% (0.7 to 1.3), topping the percentage increases of Fox's Touch (80%) and NBC's Grimm (79%).

· Among Adults 18-49, ABC saw 3 shows add on more than a full rating point to their first reported Live + Same Day numbers (the most for any network): Modern Family (+2.3 rating points), Grey's Anatomy (+1.5 rating points) and Nashville (+1.1 rating points).
