Season averages: 3.70 in the demo with 10.14 million.
Compared to its series premiere a year ago, the sitcom was down by 48% in the demo and 14% in viewers but last season’s opener had the advantage of airing behind the first Ashton Kutcher episode of Two and a Half Men. The season two debut still had very solid numbers and it actually had the show’s best demo since last February.
Reference point: The first season averaged a 4.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 11.29 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.

This show is not funny at all. It tries way too hard. It’s an insult to one’s intelligence. Cancel it!
I don’t like this show.. It is too vulgar as if they are trying too hard to shock and the dark haired lead character comes off as a nasty smart-ass too much of the time. She is very unlikeable.
What happened in Season 2? This was the best new comedy last year. Now nothing seems to be funny and many of the actors seem way off their game.
My wife & I theorize that 2 Broke Girls must have lost writers and/or directors or both.
We just watched the November 26th episode and it didn’t even come close to being as funny as Mike & Molly which followed. It was not so last season. : (
The first season episodes of this show were promising and refreshingly funny. What happened to the writers this season? The storyline has veered off somewhere in Scumbville. I was shocked at the crudeness of the last two episodes and seriously, the vulgarity isn’t needed, wasn’t needed and not wanted. Leave something to the imagination people. The show was funny without that junk. I’m a subscriber to HBO, TMC, Cinnemax, Showtime, Stars, etc. so that should tell you I’m not easily shocked by much but honestly, the last episodes would have put Samantha from Sex In The City to shame.

I love to broke girls just as much as the big bang . would hate to see it end it is one of the few shows that really makes me lmao all the time . both girls are so funny I love them
I really want this show to do well and when they seemed to focus the main story on them earning the money to open up their own Bakery it really worked. The show this season keep floating in and out of that premise with these little side tales that don’t allow the audience to still see them progressing towards that goal. The exchange between there neighbor and the chef is becoming quite annoying. the sexual innuendos are not as funny as they used to be because they happen to often in the exchanges between the characters. I don’t think this… Read more »
I have got to agree with the previous comments that these dismal ratings are not shocking. The show has really taken a turn for the worst, which is disappointing after such a great first season. I agree that they should just cancel it, but a few coworkers told me that a third season is likely! We will just have to wait and see what the future holds for 2BG.
It was sold into syndication so four seasons at least .

I am totally in agreement with Mrs. D (above), as my husband and I both find this show annoying and just not funny at all. We find ourselves surfing the upper channels of cable looking for something else on Monday nights until Mike and Molly comes on. Monday used to be one of my favorite nights of television.. not so much any more. Please bring back funny shows!

Initially, in the 1st season, we were looking forward to landing a fun & quirky new show last season. We watched and it universally fizzled quickly, either it was capturing stupid or promoting a bitterness. It was irritating with the dark haired lead actresses character display with her mannerisms. I cannot support the onslaught of enabling more inept social skills as mentored here. I certainly cannot be inspired by this show nor can I see anything links with my past with my life led here others than being broke. We gave this show several attempts, I think about four (4)… Read more »
