Last Week’s Smackdown Live generated 2.350 million viewers, which is virtually identical to this week which generated 2.349 million viewers. This week’s Smackdown Live had no competition from either the NBA or NHL playoffs.
Smackdown Live has seen an increase of 8% year-over-year, but being that Smackdown was taped before on a Tuesday and was aired on a Thursday, that increase is a bit misleading. On July, the real comparison will begin when year-over-year comparisons will both be for “live” shows and by the looks of it, there will be a decrease.
Smackdown ranked #6 on the night on cable in terms of total viewers but finished first in the 18-49 demographic.
