The premiere of FOX’s “American Grit” predictably failed to make much noise.<\/p>\n

According to fast national data posted by Showbuzz, the John Cena-hosted reality competition drew a 0.8 adults 18-49 rating and 2.43 million total live+same-day viewers Thursday night. It was the 9PM timeslot’s #4 program, besting The CW’s “The 100” but trailing ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy,” CBS’ comedies, and NBC’s “The Blacklist.”<\/p>\n

The modest 0.8 adults 18-49 rating, interestingly, matches that drawn by NBC’s “Strong” in the 8PM hour. Older-skewing, “Strong” nonetheless posted a stronger viewership tally of 3.24 million.<\/p>\n

FOX led into “American Grit” with “Bones,” which drew a 0.9 and 4.36 million viewers.<\/p>\n

In scheduling “American Grit” on Thursdays, FOX interestingly positioned its John Cena-hosted show against USA’s weekly WWE SmackDown! broadcast.<\/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":[1048],"tags":[6210,825,255,210,6263],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\nFOX's "American Grit" Premieres To Soft Ratings; Matches "Strong" in Demo<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The premiere of FOX's "American Grit" predictably failed to make much noise.
