Neither the “Bates Motel” nor “The Returned” ratings moved significantly this week.
The slight movement that did take place, however, was positive for only one of the series.
A&E’s “Bates” enjoyed the slight uptick this week. It bested last week’s 0.77 adults 18-49 rating and 1.91 million viewers with a 0.83 and 1.92 million for this week’s broadcast.
Freshman lead-out “The Returned,” meanwhile, tilted slightly downward. The third “Returned” episode posted a 0.36 adults 18-49 rating with 1.05 million total viewers. The previous broadcast delivered a 0.38 with 1.08 million.
