Update: <\/strong>Portrayed fairly by the soft overnight household number, The CW’s “Originals” kicked off its second season with weaker ratings than those of its series premiere and season one finale.<\/em><\/p>\n

Monday’s episode drew a 0.7 adults 18-49 rating with 1.36 million viewers.\u00a0 Last year, “The Originals” kicked off its first season (on a Thursday with support from “The Vampire Diaries”) with a 1.0 and 2.21 million.<\/em><\/p>\n

It wrapped up its inaugural season on Tuesday, May 13, 2014 with a 0.8 and 1.76 million.<\/em><\/p>\n

===========<\/p>\n

Airing on a challenging new night without the synergistic support of an original “Supernatural” episode, The CW’s “The Originals” began its second season on a down note.<\/p>\n

Monday’s “Originals” drew a modest 1.0 overnight household rating. Down from the 1.7 posted by last year’s series premiere (which, in fairness, received a special post-“The Vampire Diaries” broadcast) and the 1.3 delivered by May’s season one finale, the number does not suggest “The Originals” is on track to dramatically revitalize Mondays for The CW.<\/p>\n

Airing on October 3, 2013, last year’s “The Originals” series premiere ended up drawing a 1.0 adults 18-49 rating with 2.21 million viewers in the final Nielsen report. The May 13, 2014 season finale scored a 0.8 with 1.76 million viewers.<\/p>\n

This week’s adults 18-49 and total viewership numbers are due by noon.<\/p>\n

— Not wanting to completely starve “The Originals” of the synergy benefit, The CW also aired a “Supernatural” special Monday. It drew a 0.8 overnight household rating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":29284,"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":[1048,437],"tags":[289,1170],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\nRatings: The CW's "Originals" Returns on a Down Note (Updated)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Update: Portrayed fairly by the soft overnight household number, The CW's "Originals" kicked off its second season with weaker ratings than those of its\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/10\/07\/ratings-cws-originals-returns-note\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Ratings: The CW's "Originals" Returns on a Down Note (Updated)\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Update: Portrayed fairly by the soft overnight household number, The CW's "Originals" kicked off its second season with weaker ratings than those of its\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/10\/07\/ratings-cws-originals-returns-note\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Headline Planet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2014-10-07T14:11:46+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2014-10-07T21:18:17+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/The-Originals-S2-e1412691100926.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"960\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"508\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Brian Cantor\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cantorpedia\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@headlineplanet\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/10\/07\/ratings-cws-originals-returns-note\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/10\/07\/ratings-cws-originals-returns-note\/\",\"name\":\"Ratings: The CW's \\\"Originals\\\" Returns on a Down Note (Updated)\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2014-10-07T14:11:46+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2014-10-07T21:18:17+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\"},\"description\":\"Update: Portrayed fairly by the soft overnight household number, The CW's \\\"Originals\\\" kicked off its second season with weaker ratings than those of its\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/10\/07\/ratings-cws-originals-returns-note\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/\",\"name\":\"Headline Planet\",\"description\":\"Music News & Charts, TV News & Spoilers\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\",\"name\":\"Brian Cantor\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Brian Cantor\"},\"description\":\"Brian Cantor is the editor-in-chief for Headline Planet.
