FOX’s new reality series hosted by John Cena, American Grit, failed to make the big splash they expected in it’s debut.
Despite a big marketing campaign and media tour by the 15-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion, the debut episode only garnered 2,433,000 viewers. PWInsider.com reports that the show was the least-viewed network show in the 9 PM timeslot out of all the major networks.
Bones was the lead-in show and it averaged 4,357,000 viewers, meaning American Grit failed to retain almost half the audience from the show before.
