We’re officially in the “conquest” stage and the show has taken a turn. Have ratings turned as well?
Episode 15 was viewed by 482,000 people and received a 0.21 rating in the 18-49 demographic. This decreased by 15,000 viewers from last week, but the demo went up by 0.02. It was the fourth-highest-rated cable show of the night, two spots higher than last week.
While this is a small dip, ratings are considerably better than the “control” stage, the last time we didn’t have a champion coming in. The show remains MTV’s second-highest-rated program of the week, trailing RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16 —episode 3 brought in 589,000 viewers with a 0.21 rating last Friday.
Here are some benchmarks to compare this episode:
Episode 14: 497,000 viewers
Ride or Dies Episode 15: 637,000 viewers
