Ratings: ‘Waka & Tammy: What the Flocka’ Season 2 Opens To Solid Premiere Numbers

Fans of WeTV’s ‘Waka & Tammy: What the Flocka’ apparently couldn’t wait to get their eyes and ears on the latest happenings of the Hip Hop couple.

A spinoff of ‘Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition,’ ‘Waka & Tammy’ chronicles the highs and lows of the pair’s romantic rollercoaster – which also includes the challenges of parenting.

Nearly six months after it was announced the series had been renewed for a season 2, it finally returned to screens Thursday (March 18) to kick off its 8-episode run.

Look inside to see how it fared:

Viewership = 251,000

The Waka Flocka Flame and Tammy Rivera-led reality show garnered 251,000 viewers – just 40,000 less than its season 1 premiere.  A modest decline, the numbers are in line with those of its inaugural season (which averaged right under 300,000 viewers across its 6-episode run).

Competing with the likes of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament (March Madness) and related coverage, ‘Waka & Tammy’ landed at #61 among the day’s most watched cable programs (overall).  For its viewership hour (among all non-news or sports-related cable programming), the show finished in 7th place.

Catch ‘Waka & Tammy’ when it airs Thursdays at 9/8c only on weTV.
