Ratings: FX’s “Louie,” “The Comedians” Enjoy Gains This Week

After two consecutive weeks of ratings declines, FX’s Thursday comedies “Louie” and “The Comedians” both enjoyed sizable gains this week.

Both, in fact, delivered their best adults 18-49 and total viewership marks since their April 9 season premieres.

Airing in the 10:30PM slot, veteran comedy “Louie” drew a 0.23 adults 18-49 rating with 576,000 total viewers. The two numbers comfortably top those of the previous installment, which scored a 0.20 with 407,000.

Helping the “Louie” cause was the fact that lead-in “The Comedians” enjoyed a particularly significant rise of its own. Thursday’s edition of the freshman comedy posted a 0.29 rating with 680,000 viewers.

Last week’s “Comedians” drew a considerably weaker 0.19 rating with 439,000 viewers.
