"The special, based on the 1983 movie, drew a 1.5 rating among adults 18-49 and just shy of 4.5 million viewers. In January 2016, “Grease Live” posted a 4.3 and 12.18 million viewers."
This is the lowest-ever for a live musical. Not terrible considering FOX's low-ratings benchmarks but a huge disappointment when compared to the network's previous live musical (Grease) and the most-recent live musical on broadcast TV, Hairspray Live (almost 10M viewers.) |
