CNN’s debut of Barkley prime-time falls short: Lowest ratings in a decade
CNN’s New Show “King Charles” Draws Lowest Prime-Time Debut Audience in a Decade
CNN’s highly anticipated prime-time show, “King Charles,” featuring the dynamic duo of Gayle King and NBA legend Charles Barkley, unfortunately fell short in its debut. According to Nielsen ratings data, the show only managed to attract a meager 501,000 viewers, placing a distant third behind its cable news rivals, Fox News and MSNBC.

Airing for the first time last Wednesday at 10 p.m., “King Charles” occupies the same studio space that was once home to the now-canceled “Cuomo Prime Time” hosted by Chris Cuomo. This new show aims to create a late-night talk show atmosphere, blending discussions on culture and news with engaging call-ins.
While CNN has been striving to improve its ratings slump from 2023, “King Charles” failed to make a significant impact. Fox News continued its dominance in prime-time audience ratings, attracting a staggering 1,954,000 total viewers and 218,000 viewers in the crucial 25-54 age demographic this past week. On the other hand, MSNBC experienced its worst non-holiday week of the year, with a mere 94,000 prime-time viewers in the key demographic.

Claiming the top spot among all cable news shows, Fox News’s ”The Five” garnered an impressive average of 2,774,000 total viewers and 228,000 viewers in the 25-54 age demographic. Additionally, last Thursday’s special edition of “Hannity,” featuring a heated debate between Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) in “The Great Red vs. Blue State Debate,” attracted an average of 4.75 million total viewers and 742,000 in the 25-54 demographic.
