TUF 16 Episode 5 Ratings Report: Series Hits Another All-Time Low | UFC NEWS

Two weeks ago the UFC’s Ultimate Fighter reality series hit an all-time low in regards to television ratings with 775,000 tuning into episode 3.
The series quickly bounced back in week four with 1.1 million viewers and all was right in the world again.
However, last week’s episode 5 took one step further towards breaking the shows 8-year lowest viewed record with just 624,000 viewers. This number ranks the show sixth in its timeslot amongst men 18-34.
To put it into perspective, before the show switched to FX it was averaging 1.7 million viewers on SPIKE TV.

I honestly think it’s a good TUF season so far. I didn’t like last season’s “Live” format, and I definitely think a Friday time slot is kind of inconvenient. I can see why not many people are tuning in.
Friday night is killing it!
