SpotVault - Stitchers (Freeform) - Summer 2017 Ratings

Cablemetrics: Fear the Walking Dead, Animal Kingdom, Twin Peaks, Stitchers

These numbers are current through Monday, June 5.

WHAT MATTERS:

• The Walking Dead's spin-off Fear the Walking Dead returned for what looks like another year of disappointment in the making, with a 1.18/1.04 for its two-hour season premiere. Both those hours were well less than half of the the first two hours of last season (3.08/2.53, which premiered in April 2016). And it was even a significant notch below the mid-1's it was usually getting when we last saw it in early fall 2016. Of course, it should be noted that it is still at over double the rating of everything else on this table...

SpotVault - Stitchers (Freeform) - 2015-16 Ratings

Cablemetrics: The Americans, Outsiders, Underground, Stitchers

These numbers are current through Monday, March 28.

WHAT MATTERS:

• Added a few shows to the table, several of which have been on for awhile. A few things worth pointing out:
• FX's mega-acclaimed The Americans was back with a 0.28 two weeks ago and inched up to 0.29 last week. The 0.29 is actually kinda significant for a show that has typically taken enormous post-premiere drops; while the premiere was down fifty-six percent from the 2015 premiere, week two was down just 17%.
• WGN America has had some more success of late with the new dramas Outsiders and Underground, both of which have been in the 0.2's in recent weeks. Doesn't seem like much, but it's a massive improvement on the micro-rated (and recently cancelled) Manhattan, and also better than the 0.1-range ratings that previous flagship original Salem was pulling last summer.
• Also added MTV's Awkward and Faking It back to the list. After really rough spring premieres at 0.25/0.13, they rebounded considerably to 0.31/0.21 in week two.
