Based on Nielsen's TV playback data among Adults 18-49, ABC shot up to a 2.4 rating among Adults 18-49 in the final Live + 7 numbers, growing 41% over its Live + Same Day number to stand as the week's biggest percentage gainer for the 2nd week in a row among the major networks.

For the 4th straight week, ABC claimed the most Top 10 playback gainers of any broadcast network. The Net had 5 of the week's 10 biggest gainers in both Adults 18-49 and Total Viewers, with Grey's Anatomy (+1.8 rating points and +3.9 million), Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

In addition, among Adults 18-49, Scandal (+1.6 rating points) and Castle (+1.4 rating points) were 2 of the week's 3 biggest 10pm series gainers on the broadcast nets.

Posting its biggest lift yet this season, ABC's Revenge catapulted 79% over its Live+SD Adult 18-49 rating to rank as the week's 2nd-biggest percentage gainer on the major networks. In fact, Castle (+74%), The Goldbergs (+47%) and Scandal (+55%) also delivered their biggest playback gains among Adults 18-49 so far this season.

· For the 4th week in a row, ABC's Scandal delivered a new high in TV playback, adding on another +4.0 million viewers to grow to 12.6 million Total Viewers in the final Live + 7 Day ratings. In addition, Scandal matched last week's series-high lift in Adults 18-49, picking up +1.6 rating points in the L+7 numbers.

· Castle scored the show's largest-ever playback increases in L+7 in Adults 18-49 and Total Viewers, adding on another +1.4 rating points and +4.7 million viewers to build to a 3.3 rating and 15.3 million viewers in the final Live + 7 Day ratings.

In the final Live + 7 Day ratings, ABC delivered 4 of the week's Top 10 highest-rated broadcast series in Adults 18-49 (versus 1 in the initial Live+SD ratings): Modern Family (5.6 rating) - #3 (up from #6), Grey's Anatomy (4.6) - #8 (up from #12), Scandal (4.5) - #9 (up from #11) and S.H.I.E.L.D.

· ABC's S.H.I.E.L.D. moved ahead of NCIS in the final L+7 ratings to beat the CBS drama by 5% among Adults 18-49 (4.4 vs. 4.2). Initially in the Live + Same Day ratings, the ABC drama was 4-tenths of a rating point behind NCIS.
