On a side note, in 21 years, no TV show has grown in viewers and in ratings on its first 3 episodes ever. 21 years. Guys, I was 3. Yet, yesterday, EMPIRE (FOX) made HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER (ABC) look like that cute little show over on ABC, with BLACK-ISH (ABC) being the ugly duckling in the corner. FOX went into this season talking about GOTHAM was going to be their huge show of the season. Little did they know…
I’m sure the ratings will fall back to Earth in the next month or so, but, man, guys. This is history. You won’t see something like this for a really, really long time in broadcast history.
