Revenge: Season Two Ratings

Published:May 14, 2013

ABC TV show Revenge ratingsIt looked like Revenge might be cancelled due to mediocre ratings last May. ABC gave the TV series a renewal instead, likely in part because the network’s other new dramas didn’t perform as well. Will Revenge’s ratings fall lower this season or will this nighttime soap’s numbers rise instead?

The second season of Revenge typically airs Sunday nights on ABC. The network has ordered 22 episodes. The cast includes Emily VanCamp, Madeleine Stowe, Henry Czerny, Joshua Bowman, Christa B. Allen, Gabriel Mann, Nick Wechsler, Connor Paolo, and Ashley Madekwe.

Year-to-year, the season debut of Revenge was down slightly from the series premiere, by 3% in the demo (vs a 3.3 rating) and down by 3% in viewership (vs 10.02 million). These were the highest numbers since last year’s premiere. A very positive start.

Reference point: The 2011-12 season averaged a 2.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 7.82 million viewers.

Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.

What do you think? Do you still like the Revenge TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?

We PVR the show….can’t miss an episode. Best show in years. Scheduling sucks…we thought the finale was weeks ago b/c it wasn’t aired for so long. Ratings are down b/c the show is on for a couple weeks, then off.

My mother and I started watching this show together since episode 1 and we are addicted! We have a revenge night every week and watch it ON DEMAND. We were disappointed during season 2 how t was on a couple of times and then would go off for weeks. It’s not the show that has the caused any low ratings, it’s the fact that it had so many off weeks. Just watched seaon 2 finale and it was AWSOME!!! Best cliff hanger ever after Emily told Jack her real identity. Can’t wait to Season 3.

I LOVE Revenge, It’s amazing. I think the reason why the ratings are fluctuating, is because It constantly starts up again for 2/3 episodes, and then goes off for a month, then starts up again & off. I think It will work better starting a little later, and having a little longer mid- season break, so there won’t be so many breaks between multiple sets of episodes! ( Scheduling needs improving)

Revenge is unlike other shows in that it covers a broad spectrum of ideas making the intrigue more palatable .

I love, love, love this show. Always has twists and turns. One of those shows, that you have to follow from the beginning. Love the characters. Also hate that they moved it around. Loved it on Wednesday night. HOWEVER, DON’T CHANGE AGAIN. Please renew.
