The overall live viewership continued to slide from there, with one November episode only acquiring 2.45 million total viewers.
Despite the timely subject matter of the show, The Mayor did not seem to dominate much of the television conversation.
Paired with Black-ish on ABC’s Tuesday night comedy line-up, The Mayor debuted in the fall to a 1.2 rating among the 18-49 demographic.
Delayed viewing (through next day streaming or DVR) was also unimpressive to the network; it probably didn’t help matters that the comedy aired at the same time of This Is Us over on NBC.
