The sixth season of Strike Back averaged a 0.02 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 120,000 viewers. Compared to season five, that’s down by 76% and 50%, respectively. Learn how Strike Back stacks up against the other Cinemax TV shows.

Telly’s Take
Season six premiered with much lower ratings than the fifth season and they’ve dropped much lower in later weeks. Though Cinemax doesn’t depend on ratings like regular commercial channels, they do need to make programming that people want to watch. It doesn’t seem like there’s much of an audience for this revival thus far. For now, I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page with breaking news.
