According to live-plus-same-day “fast official” ratings from Nielsen Media Research, the latest episode of SNL, which saw the return of Murphy as host, earned the show’s biggest ratings in two and a half years. The show delivered a 2.5 rating in adults 18-49 and 9.921 million viewers overall in Live+Same Day.

Joining Murphy who returned to the live comedy show after more than two decades, was Lizzo as the musical guest. It also featured appearances by Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Tracy Morgan, Alec Baldwin, Larry David, Maya Rudolph, Jason Sudeikis, Fred Armisen, and Rachel Dratch. 

The last installment to hold the title of highest-scoring and the most-viewed episode of SNL was a May 2017 episode hosted by Melissa McCarthy with musical guest HAIM. That episode averaged a 2.7 rating in adults 18-49 and attracted 10.382 million viewers overall.

Season 8 ratings have not only reached an all time low, but the amount of viewers watching has decreased by over 7 million since Season 4. Perhaps this is to be expected considering that with the rise of Netflix, most people’s TV viewing time has dropped significantly. It is a matter of opinion whether the show’s quality has decreased and whether this is the real reason for the drop in ratings and views.

That being said, the show remains incredibly popular with over 8 million viewers and the new season is still rated higher than the Winter Olympics in the 18-49 demographic. It’s ratings might have dropped, but it’s still one of the top watched shows on TV after Game of Thrones. Even if ratings continue to decline, The Walking Dead has a loyal fan base who continue to watch. This does depend of course on who the writers have decided to kill off or bring back this season. Will you be watching to find out?
