Fox finished first in the demo ratings for the second night in a row on Wednesday thanks to its World Series Game 2 coverage.
For The CW, “The 100” returned 44 percent down from its series premiere in the spring. However, the show dropped during Season 1 and is merely flat with its last episode.
Fox was first in ratings with a 2.9 rating in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic and first in viewers with an average of 11.1 million, according to preliminary numbers. Of course, due to the nature of live sports, this early fast national rating should be considered unreliable. Final numbers will come out later this afternoon.
