Ratings: Broadcast Finals for May 3, 2013
Well, it is FINALLY time to say Good-Bye to +Happy Endings. The once promising series that never attracted an audience, had it finale two episodes on Friday Night. Over the 8 p.m. hour, the sitcom drew an average of just 2.4 million viewers and a 0.8 demo rating. It was the night least watched program, from the Big 4 networks and only TOUCH drew a smaller A18-49 rating. So, I guess it is a not-so Happy Endings for HAPPY ENDINGS.+Undercover Boss had a huge drop from week to week. Drawing just 7.2 million viewers and a 1.2 demo rating, the series was down 2 million viewers and down 37% in the demo ratings. This is one of the larger drops I have seen from one week to the next, for a veteran series. You usually only see erosion this large from episode one to episode two of a new series. It may give CBS reason to pause on renewing the reality series for the 2013-14 season.
