“Survivor” last Wednesday surged to a season high and emerged as the night’s top show. It even beat a Wednesday edition of another hit Mark Burnett competition, “The Voice.”
Conversely, with “Empire” on hiatus, “American Idol” may have last week hit its worst number ever. The show’s ratings have been plummeting since Simon Cowell ended his final season in 2010. Fun facts:
“Idol’s” 2010 Wednesday launch scored a 10.1;
“Idol’s” 2011 Wednesday launch scored a 9.7;
“Idol’s” 2012 Wednesday launch scored a 7.4;
“Idol’s” 2013 Wednesday launch scored a 6.5;
“Idol’s” 2014 Wednesday launch scored a 4.7;
“Idol’s” 2015 Wednesday launch scored a 3.2.
Jennifer Lopez is not the answer to this series’ problem.
Despite miniscule ratings, FX has elected to bring back “The Americans” in 2016.
