Up 4% in total viewers, the adults 18-49 rating improved by a tenth.<\/p>\n<p>And though the increase over last week&#8217;s performance is minor, the show has rebounded from the low 0.6 with 1.64 million viewers it posted on January 11.<\/p>\n<p>BET&#8217;s revived &#8220;The Game,&#8221; meanwhile, continued its decline from the massive January 11 premiere.  After dipping notably from a 3.6 with 7.68 million viewers to a 2.8 with 5.94 million viewers last week, the former CW property fell again to a 2.3 with 4.65 million viewers.  The performance is still strong (especially in the women 18-34 demographic, within which it earned a 3.8), but the show has moved quite a bit away from the splash it made two weeks ago.<\/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],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>&quot;Southland&quot; Ratings Improve, &quot;The Game&quot; Continues Decline<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"&quot;SouthLAnd&quot; is still well below the threshold of success for a series of its nature, but its ratings improved slightly for Tuesday&#039;s episode.
