WWE Friday Night Smackdown averages 2.1M viewers

March 7, 2021 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

WWE Friday Night Smackdown improved on Friday night to draw 2.153 million viewers in the first hour on Fox and 2.179 million viewers in hour 2 per Nielsen via ShowBuzz Daily.

Smackdown improved to a 0.6 share in the A18-49 demo.  It also improved to 0.7 in the A25-54 demo.  The male demo dominated as it usually does on Friday night drawing a 6 share in the first hour and a 5 share in hour 2.

Payout Perspective:

ABC’s Shark Tank (4.4M) and CBS’s Magnum P.I.(5.3M) topped the 8pm and 9pm network time slots respectively.  Yet, Smackdown improved over last week in overall ratings and in the young demos.
