Although the midseason premiere of “Empire” was one of the show’s lowest rated episodes ever, it faired better in delayed viewing.

In Live+7 the show went from a 1.2 to a 1.9 rating, a 58% bump which is slightly above the 53% increase that season 5 episodes of the show have averaged up until now.

However, in terms of total viewership, the midseason premiere only jumped from around 4.5 million to 6 million viewers for a 38% increase, compared to the 40% average for the season so far.

Elsewhere for the week of March 11, “This Is Us” remained at the top of the ratings chart, growing by 94% from a 1.8 in L+Same Day to 3.5 in Live+7.
