Defiance Ratings Hold Strong!

[jonwes]

Great news for the show - the ratings were steady with Episode 2 for the third episode, which means no precipitous drop in viewership so far. A drop from episode 1 to 2 is expected. It gets more worrisome if you see more substantial drops from episode to episode from there on. But so far, so good:

Episode 1: DEFIANCE SYFY 9:00 PM 2.7 1.0
Episode 2: DEFIANCE SYFY 9:00 PM 2.4 0.8
Episode 3: DEFIANCE SYFY 9:00 PM 2.3 0.8

Note: First number is viewers in millions, the second number is the rating for the 18-49 demo.

Funny how this thread has so few replies compared to the doom and gloom thread about Episode 2. LOL. Oh well.

It was an alright episode, felt the Matron encounter was a bit tacked on and due to budget they had the characters cover themselves in hellbug shtako to avoid a fight scene when a perfectly awesome Monarch chasing the main characters around the mine and just as the explosives detonate the roof caves in and crushes the Monarch would have made a much better thrilling episode.

But no we got a "peak" at the hellbug hive im hoping syfy explores and opens up the story involving Hellbugs but it seems the next episode involves the Volge which i can't complain about.

I think so far, it is a solid show. The story pacing is well constructed and the character development is above average for a freshman show. It does have some room for improvement, but I think once we as the audience begin to see the show settle and really unveil the major elements that coincide with the former mayor's agenda, the "filler" shows will be forgiven and we will be able to focus on the greater dynamic that will hopefully lead us to a fantastic season end. Once the SYFY powers that be crunch the numbers and see what aspects of the show are really piquing our interests, we will see that information applied to the development of the second season, and get an even more focused show.

I for one am really enjoying the show and looking forward to every new episode. I hope there are a lot of you out there that share my sentiment
