Ratings Review: THE BRINK (Season One)

THE BRINK is not HBO's next hit series, but it did do better than most of the network's shows, including the show which held the time slot the ten weeks before THE BRINK premiered, VEEP. Given that, it was easy for HBO to renew the series for a second season.

The Live+SD ratings averages for THE BRING were 1.08 million viewers, a 0.4 rating in the A18-34 demo, a 0.5 rating in the A18-49 demo and a 0.5 rating in the 25-54 demo.

The show was not widely DVRed and those numbers ware almost never reported. But it looks like the 18-49 demographic would pick up about three tenths of a point, by the seventh day of viewing.
