FX’s “The Bastard Executioner” suffered a massive week two ratings tumble.
Tuesday’s episode posted a 0.39 adults 18-49 rating with 1.092 million viewers.
Both marks dramatically trail those of the series premiere, which posted a 0.83 adults 18-49 rating with 2.116 million viewers.
This week’s episode suffered similarly significant drops in adults 18-34 (down 55% to a 0.30) and adults 25-54 (down 48% to a 0.47).
While the introduction of heightened competition from broadcast network programs did not help matters, it doubtfully explains the entirety of this week’s drop. “The Bastard Executioner” clearly failed to hook its premiere week viewers.
