Ratings Review: THE MIDDLE (Season Four)
THE MIDDLE is not a breakout hit sitcom like MODERN FAMILY or THE BIG BANG THEORY. It may not even be on the level of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER. But, it is a solid ratings performer for ABC.
THE MIDDLE is a series that can kick off a comedy block and deliver a good size audience to a new sitcom at the bottom of the hour. As the series head to syndication this fall, we should see a surge in the ratings for the new episodes on ABC.
For the season, THE MIDDLE averaged 7.25 million viewers and a 2.0 rating in Adults 18-49, for the 31 airings, including 8 repeat airings. This fifth season should be a big season for the seriesas they will hit episode #100 in early October.
