— The Rock’s new reality show Wake-Up Call did not get off to a good start on TNT. The show, which premiered on Friday, drew just 508,000 viewers and a 0.2 rating in the 18 – 49 demo, failing to hit the top 100 cable shows for the night in the demographic.
— UPDATE: The final cable/household rating for WWE SmackDown was a 1.74 (1.7), even with last week’s episode.
— ORIGINAL: Friday’s episode of WWE SmackDown! rebounded from last week’s precipitous fall. The show brought in 2.53 million viewers and a 0.7 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic, up 1% and a tenth from 2.49 million and a 0.6. While those are still well below the average for the month previous, it is a bit of a bounce-back.
The household rating will be available later.
