It's ah-mah-zing what a little World Series rain delay can do for shows on other networks.'The Middle,' 'Suburgatory' and 'Happy Endings' all reached ratings highs thanks to a distinct lack of new episodes across the other major broadcast networks.
'The Middle' attracted 10.2 million viewers and had a 3.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic. Freshman comedy 'Suburgatory' had a 3.4 18-49 rating and dipped a bit in total viewers to 9.8 million. A 'Modern Family' rereun did 11.4 million viewers and a 4.4 rating and a new 'Happy Endings' episode was watched by 8.3 million viewers with a respectable 3.5 rating.
ABC's dramatic offering, 'Revenge,' had 8.7 million viewers and a 2.8 rating.
Fox aired reruns of 'Glee' in place of the World Series game and NBC also aired repeats. CBS offered up a new 'Survivor' to 11.6 million viewers and a 3.4 rating. 'America's Next Top Model' had 2.2 million viewers and a 1 rating.
