After two disappointing episodes, how did the double feature fare?
Episode 3 was viewed by 293,000 people and received a 0.14 rating in the 18-49 demographic. Then, Episode 4 was viewed by 190,000 people and received a 0.09 rating in the 18-49 demographic.
This means the third episode lost 18,000 viewers and 0.01 rating points compared to Episode 2, which isn’t a huge loss, but it’s significant when you consider how low viewership is. But, the bigger disaster is the loss of over 100,000 viewers between the two episodes. While I thoroughly enjoyed Episode 4, I can’t blame viewers: 2.5 hours is a long time to stay committed to a show, especially when it means staying up until 10:30 p.m.
Hopefully the start of “chaos” moves the needle in the right direction, because these numbers aren’t painting a pretty picture.
Here are some benchmarks to compare this episode:
Episode 2: 311,000 viewers
Ride or Dies Episode 3: 490,000 viewers
Ride or Dies Episode 4: 459,000 viewers
