Winning must be Shonda Rhimes‘ default mode.

For, that’s exactly what she continues to do week in and week out with the ratings of two of her prime-time properties – ‘Scandal’ and ‘How To Get Away With Murder’.

This week’s offerings of both shows delivered dynamite numbers for ABC.

Find out what the figures below…

According to TV By The Numbers, Thursday night’s episode of ‘Scandal’ was watched by a whopping 10 million viewers, while the Viola Davis led ”How To’ followed closely with 9.22 million viewers.

For ‘Scandal’, which is spearheaded by Kerry Washington, the numbers represent a cementing of its top-tier status. Indeed, it’s averaging a weekly audience in its fourth season that is markedly larger than previous seasons.

As a freshman series, ”Murder’ is not only delivering, but outpacing expectation too. Deservingly, we must say.

***********

In other news, fans of both shows will be givien a period of time to catch their breaths following next week’s Winter finales. Because after their airing on November 20th, both will take a Holiday hiatus and return on January 29th.

    That pic is misleading. Shonda rhimes is not the creator of HTGAWM. A guy named Pete Nowa is. Shonda is just the executive producer (the money).

    As far as Im concerned Rowan could kill everybody and have a spinoff.

    Can’t wait until the next ep. Who killed sam doe? *__* I have a feeling it was manslaughter, he was probably threatening Rebecca and one of the students hit him with the trophy in self defence… (not the puppy because its too obvious, and not laurel because she seems so bland after the event) jurys on one of the shooting stars (michaela or connor) cos they seem to be the most psychologically affected in flash forwards.
