Although it is still formally branded as a BBC America series, “Killing Eve” will simulcast on AMC for the entirety of its second season.<\/p>\n
The concurrent broadcasting plan began with this Sunday’s season premiere. Naturally, the combination of AMC and BBC America telecasts resulted in a series-high performance.<\/p>\n
According to live+same-day data posted by Showbuzz, the AMC version of “Killing Eve” drew a 0.15 adults 18-49 rating and averaged 0.77 million overall viewers. The BBC America broadcast added a 0.10 and 0.40 million viewers.<\/p>\n
The combined 0.25 rating and 1.17 million viewer mark represent clear highs for the show, which never went above a 0.13 rating and 0.70 million for its BBC America-only first season.<\/p>\n
In fairness, the combined numbers do not make for a blockbuster<\/i> performance, and they do not reflect enormous growth in response to the first season’s immense acclaim.<\/p>\n
Still, they are solid for a cable drama in 2019. And insofar as the show has already been renewed for a third season, BBC America and AMC are clearly happy with how the show is resonating.<\/p>\n
