After Life Sentence hit another live-plus-same-day low this week, the CW has decided to move the dramedy to Fridays, a move the network also recently applied to Life Sentence‘s predecessor in the post-Riverdale Wednesday 9 p.m. slot, Dynasty.
‘Life Sentence’ Opens Soft On The CW
Lucy Hale’s new CW series Life Sentence failed to generate significant ratings in its debut on Wednesday night. Airing at 9 p.m., Life Sentence averaged a 0.3 rating in adults 18-49 and 760,000 viewers. That is even in the demo with the premieres of fellow freshman CW shows Valor and Dynasty, which are currently averaging a 0.2 each, but less than half of the ratings drawn by Black Lightning, which opened to a 0.8 and is averaging a 0.6 in its first season.
