Part four of History Channel’s The Bible once again managed to crush the networks as the miniseries on Sunday night had 10.3 million viewers. While the fourth episode slid slightly from the 10.9 million last week, it was well ahead of the competition.
The two-hour telecast, which also had a 2.8 rating among adults 18-49, is proving to be very consistent week to week.
TV’s top-rated shows were ABC’s Once Upon a Time (7.38 million) and CBS’ The Amazing Race (9.3 million), significantly behind Mark Burnett and Roma Downey hit show.
The series concludes on Easter Sunday with a portrayal of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection.
