Preliminary Ratings: Wednesday 03/26/14

Week two of the CW series THE 100, cooled off a bit, from last week's strong numbers. The series collected 2.3 million viewers and a 0.7 rating in Adults 18-49. That is down 17% in viewers and 22% in the demographic ratings. Both are within normal/acceptable rages. it is still a stronger showing than THE TOMORROW PEOPLE was getting in the time slot, earlier this season.

FOX was the top network of the night, despite the relatively weak ratings AMERICAN IDOL is bringing in. Had CBS not had repeats for it's two dramas, we may be talking about a different network winning the night.

ABC was the #2 network of the night, just edging CBS in the A18-49 numbers. NASHVILLE is looking pretty weak right now. It did beat the repeat episode of CHICAGO PD, but could not top the CSI repeat, at 10 p.m. Part of this could be from the weak lead in programming the series has had all season, but lately, it has not been able to even hold those numbers.

I know NBC was in repeat mode, but to fall to CW levels, in the demo ratings, is a very weak showing.
