“There’s no query we had been a bubble present,” Nash acknowledged to TVLine on the time. “However all people creatively at ABC was so supportive and needed to see [a fifth season] occur. And we knew that if it didn’t occur, our followers could be like, “You may’t finish a sequence like that!”
In Season 4, A Million Little Issues averaged 4.1 million whole weekly viewers and a 0.7 demo score (with Dwell+7 playback) — down 20 and 30 p.c from its Season 3 tallies. Out of the eight dramas ABC has aired final season, it ranked No. 6 in viewers and tied for fifth within the demo. It did, although, benefit from the second-best DVR bump of any ABC sequence.
