Last week, viewership ticked up slightly. Could the momentum be sustained?
The Challenge: Vets & New Threats: Episode 15 was watched by 296,000 live viewers and received a 0.09 rating in the 18-49 demographic. This is an increase of 26,000 viewers, and the demo climbed 0.01. The episode was the 7th highest-rated cable show of the night.
It’s nice to see this season climb in viewership, but the numbers are still quite underwhelming. At least The Challenge continues to be MTV’s highest-rated show.
Here are some benchmarks to compare this episode:
Vets & New Threats Episode 14: 270,000 viewers (0.08 rating)
Battle of the Eras Episode 15: 481,000 viewers (0.20 rating)
