ABC coverage of the NBA Finals easily dominated Thursday night in the ratings, ranking as the most-watched program on TV and marking the highest-rated Game 4 in six years.
The Lakers vs. Celtics game drew an 11.6 overnight household rating, a 6% increase from 2009's Lakers vs. Orlando game. Like Games 1-3 of this series, the overnight number was the best since the 2004 NBA Finals, when the Lakers faced off against Detroit.
The only other original program on the air last night was a special non-competition episode of Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance" (6.6 million, 2.5).
