Monday’s edition of “Better Call Saul” proved unable to break the show’s streak of viewership losses. For the fifth consecutive time (fourth in the regular Monday night timeslot), the “Breaking Bad” spin-off failed to match its predecessor’s audience total.
This week’s episode did, however, buck one negative trend. It ended its erosion in adults 18-49 — and actually reached additional members of the coveted young adults demo.
Monday’s “Saul” drew a 1.26 adults 18-49 rating with 2.57 million viewers. The performance offers the aforementioned mixed comparison to the previous episode, which drew a lesser 1.22 rating but a greater viewership total of 2.71 million.
Despite its repeated viewership declines, “Better Call Saul” remains a very strong player for AMC (and for the cable landscape in general). It once again ranked as one of Monday night’s top three cable programs (along with “Love & Hip-Hop” and WWE RAW).
