Ratings Review: ELLEN'S DESIGN CHALLENGE (Season One)

HGTV is slowly becoming a force within the cable ratings. First year competition series, ELLEN'S DESIGN CHALLENGE, now adds a little star power to the growing list of successful shows by the network.

The six episode season did relatively well in the ratings, and was in the daily top 15, most of those weeks. The season average of 2.06 million viewers and a 0.6 demo rating, is better than any adult cable sitcom and better than a lot of the current original dramas on cable.

The only downside to the series was the debacle of the finale. After the winner of the season had been crowned, producers discovered that he cheated and presented an original design, that was not very original. But, I doubt this will keep HGTV from ordering another season of the show, and perhaps a few more episodes per season.
