“Preacher” has not been a ratings phenomenon, but it is a very solid performer by cable drama standards. Though it is likely aided by a decline in competition, the recent string of increases is particularly worthy of praise.
“Preacher” led into the “Ride With Norman Reedus” season finale, which drew a 0.21 adults 18-49 rating and 0.63 million total viewers. The numbers narrowly best the 0.20 rating and 0.61 million viewer mark posted by last week’s episode.
