Schedules Plus is the ultimate almanac to broadcast network primetime scheduling since 2001. It features lineups for three different parts of the year, as well as A18-49+ ratings that more fairly account for historical decline. For more on the tables and charts in Schedules Plus, see
this primer .
This post covers ABC Thursday. The night was a complete wasteland for ABC during the years of megahits
Survivor ,
Friends and
CSI duking it out on Thursday. But a few years after the end of
Friends , ABC put its hat squarely in the Thursday ring by bringing in medical megahit
Grey's Anatomy . It took many years for
Grey's to find a truly potent Thursday companion, fellow Shonda Rhimes creation
Scandal , and then
How to Get Away with Murder rounded out a night of top-to-bottom dominance soon after that. But those younger guns have faded of late, and it's
Grey's Anatomy making an improbable re-emergence as queen of Thursday.
