Tuesday’s back-to-back “Chrisley Knows Best” broadcasts, which functioned as the season premiere, drew series high marks for the USA network original.
After opening to a 0.7 adults 18-49 rating with 1.62 million viewers at 10PM, “Chrisley” followed with a nearly identical 0.7 and 1.61 million viewers for the 10:30PM installment.
While the 10PM portion of the season one finale drew the equivalent 0.7 adults 18-49 rating, its viewership total clocked in at a softer 1.47 million. And insofar as the 10:30PM season one finale episode drew a 0.5 with 1.09 million viewers, its average for the entire hour was irrefutably weaker than that drawn by Tuesday’s season two premiere.
Compared to the numbers for the back-to-back season one premiere broadcast, the first season two episodes were up a collective 40% in adults 18-49 and 64% in total viewers.
