We’re getting closer to the end, and we’ve seen a slow climb in viewership over the past few weeks. Did it continue?
The Challenge: Vets & New Threats: Episode 17 was watched by 317,000 live viewers and received a 0.12 rating in the 18-49 demographic. This is a small drop of 3,000 viewers compared to last week, but the demo increased 0.02. The episode was the 5th highest-rated cable show of the night.
This season certainly isn’t ending with big numbers, but it has been stable as we get to the end. Hopefully it can retain viewers for its last two episodes, because there are now zero Real Worlders or Road Rulers on the cast.
Here are some benchmarks to compare this episode:
Vets & New Threats Episode 16: 320,000 viewers (0.10 rating)
Battle of the Eras Episode 17: 423,000 viewers (0.18 rating)
