Echoing a pivotal scene in cult favorite “Se7en,” Wednesday’s episode of “The Bridge” was nothing if not exciting. Unfortunately, it struggled to attract an audience.<\/p>\n

After rebounding to a 0.7 adults 18-49 rating with an impressive 1.80 million viewers last week, this week’s edition delivered just a 0.6 with 1.50 million. The latter figure represents a viewership low for FX’s acclaimed new drama.<\/p>\n

While its ratings are subject to weekly oscillation, the show’s audience figures have largely remained within a consistent ballpark. Whether that ballpark is impressive enough to earn a second season renewal remains to be seen, but it is roughly equivalent with the one occupied by FX’s renewed freshman series “The Americans.”<\/p>\n

In fact, this Wednesday’s “Bridge” was the first in four weeks to draw a smaller crowd than the comparable “Americans” episode.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3,1048,437],"tags":[519,478],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n"The Bridge" Ratings Fall, Viewership Hits Series Low<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Echoing a pivotal scene in cult favorite "Se7en," Wednesday's episode of "The Bridge" was nothing if not exciting.
