Last night the 12th and final episode of Kathy aired and its true to say that its celebrity reboot did absolutely nothing positive for its ratings. Kathy premiered on April 19th and opened with strong ratings of 987,000, buoyed by a strong lead-in; the 2nd Reunion Special of Real Housewives of Atlanta had aired at 9pm scoring 2,540,000 viewers. For the next 8 episodes Kim Zolciak’s spin-off Don’t be Tardy For The Wedding was Kathy’s lead-in and these first 9 episodes of Kathy averaged 771,000 viewers with 0.39 in the 18-49 demo.

Original programming for this week started with a bang Sunday night as the 9th episode of RHoNJ scored its second best of this 4th season which set the stage for a great week for Bravo’s ratings. 2,872,000 viewers tuned in and this episode scored 1.40 in the 18-49 demo. Sunday night was a fantastic night for Bravo Ratings across the board, as RHoNJ was followed by Jacqueline Laurita on WWHL at 11pm and she held on to 55% of the lead-in audience to score stellar ratings for Andy Cohen. 1,583,000 viewers (0.70 18-49 demo) tuned in for Jac, who was joined in the clubhouse by new RHoNY Carole Radziwill.

Bravo Ratings for Thursday June 28th, 2012 – Kathy & WWHL w/Kylie & Katie
With summer winding up and networks winding down, Thursday night on Bravo saw two talk shows airing, both of which had been prerecorded on Monday June 25th. On that day Kathy tweeted out this photo with her guests Sharon Osbourne & Jane Fonda and Lisa Ling joined as well. As Kylie Minogue was only in NYC on Monday, Andy had to also pre-tape his show. This gave both shows’ editors four days to tighten up each episode and iron out any ‘live’ kinks.
After retooling Kathy’s show in the hope of boosting the audience with celebrity guests (see this Bravo PR Release), the first attempt last week featuring Anderson Cooper, not only failed to increase ratings but actually took the season to a series low.

News & Projections Week June 24 – June 28, 2012 – Bravo Ratings
With Sunday’s ratings not being released until tomorrow, Tuesday, on Monday’s we turn our attention to projections for the week ahead. This is a big week for Bravo and its ratings and at Bravo Ratings, we’ll have a better handle on the scheduling fate of two shows sometime late Tuesday afternoon. ‘Miss Advised‘ debuted last week to lackluster reviews and ratings, and with ‘RHoNY‘ falling again last week to be down 22% after three episodes when compared with the same stage in both Season 3 & Season 4, Monday’s ratings might well determine if that night’s schedule is shaken up in the coming weeks. Last week only two out of five episodes of Andy Cohen’s talkie scored in the nightly Top 100 Cable ratings; Sunday with Teresa Giudice and Tuesday with Gretchen Rossi, which meant that Monday’s episode with Ramona Singer didn’t score. This is largely due to the fact that not enough people who watched ‘Miss Advised’ at 10pm stayed around to see Ramona, and that ‘RHoNY’ fans failed to switch back at 11pm.

Bravo Ratings – Kathy – Press Release via Bravo PR June 13th, 2012
After 8 Episodes of its 1st Season, ‘Kathy’ the ‘Embassy Row’ produced talk show has struggled in finding an audience. Despite a strong lead in from Kim Zolciak’s ‘Don’t Be Tardy for the Wedding’ ‘Kathy’ has remained the lowest rated show currently airing on Bravo, averaging just over 750,000 and under 0.40 in the 18-49 demo. Kathy Griffin, who stated in pre-show press that she wouldn’t have celebrities on her show, has evidently bowed to both Bravo and producer pressure and relented. (See Bravo’s press release below.) With ‘Tardy’ finishing this week, evidently producers are even more concerned with how her show will rate given it will lose the strong ‘Tardy’ lead in.
Ratings for Kathy – Season 1
Most press release are often more informative based on what they leave out and the glaring absence of any ratings information in this release is evidence that Bravo is rightly dissatisfied with ‘Kathy’s’ ratings to date.
