Supergirl Ratings Rise In “Livewire” Overnight Ratings Report

How did Supergirl do in the initial overnight ratings?

Episode 4 “Livewire” had 7.87 million viewers and a 1.8/6 in the important 18-49 demo, with the final numbers surely going up even more once DVR and such things are factored in. This was a rise of one point in the demo, and it made it so Supergirl tied with the older-skewing Dancing With The Stars for second place in the 18-49 age group.

The show beat both FOX’s Gotham and The CW’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend in total viewers and the demo.
