The CW’s second season of Batwoman saw its ratings and viewership continue to decline with the season’s fifth episode titled Gore on Canvas.
According to TV Series Finale, viewership dropped to a series worst 507,000 and ratings fell to .10 also a series worst. However, these are fast affiliate ratings and not final numbers, so it’s possible the numbers could change.
Episode 4 did see its viewership increase by 2,000 viewers and its rating increase by .1 when finale numbers were made available.

As you can see in the chart above, viewership declined by .39% and the ratings dropped by 9.09%.
However, if you compare Season 5 episode 5 to Season 1 episode 5, you can see just how horrible this show is doing in just one season. Episode 5 had viewership of 1.160 million and a .26 rating.
That’s a decline of over 653,000 people. That’s a 56% decline in viewership. The ratings decline is even worse. It’s a total decline of .16. That translates to an over 61% decline!
While the show had been consistently declining in audience scores, it did see a slight tick up on Rotten Tomatoes.
The Audience Score following episode 5 now sits at 19% up from 18% from episode 4. That’s where it was after episode 3.
