ABC’s revival of Battle of the Network stars took a hit in both key ratings measures on Thursday night, according to Nielsen data. Airing at 9 p.m., the competition series averaged a 0.8 rating in adults 18-49 and 3 million total viewers. That is down from its premiere last week, when the show drew a 1.0 and 4.1 million viewers, for a decline of approximately 20% in the key demo and close to 30% in total viewers.
Earlier on ABC, Boy Band (0.6, 2.8 million) ticked up in the key demo from last week. The Gong Show (0.7, 3 million) was down in both measures in its third week.
