Ratings Review: HARD KNOCKS (Season Eleven - Summer 2015)

This is the first time I even payed attention to the HARD KNOCKS series and I did not realize it only ran for five episodes a season. It hardly seems worth the effort for the small episodes order for each season. But, it does do relatively decent numbers for HBO.

The series brings in just shy of 900,000 viewers per episode and a 0.5 ratings for each of the three younger demographic categories. DVR ratings were almost nonexistent, with just one datapoint reported.

As long as there is an NFL team willing to open its training camp doors, expect more seasons of HARD KNOCKS in the future.
