As I discussed last week AP Bio did a major shake up to its schedule this past week. Well the final results are in and it does not appear the shake up has paid off for the first week. Both episodes on 3/1 contained a .7 rating with 2.6 million and 2.7 million viewers respectively.
This is a drop from the premiere which had a rating of .8 and of course the episode which aired after the olympics closing which had a massive boost because of that. I’m sure that NBC is hoping that this week now that the schedule will remain in a regular time slot the ratings may stabilize and hopefully increase but based on all of my findings so far this seems unlikely.
I will add though that this is a show that seems likely to get more of a buzz as a watch later and binge type comedy perhaps especially if it is targeting a younger skewing audience.
