Season One Ratings

The first season of Knightfall averaged a 0.24 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.24 million viewers. Find out how Knightfall stacks up against other History TV shows.
 

Telly’s Take

The ratings have been significantly lower than Vikings’. However, I suspect Knightfall will score a season two renewal because the cable network is trying to build up its scripted programming slate. Since that’s just speculation though, I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on any Knightfall cancellation and renewal news.
