– DEMOGRAPHICS: Impact drew an older crowd with a median age viewer of 53.7 years-old.

This led to a significant decline (25 percent) in apples-to-apples adults 18-49 viewers compared to last week.

There was a big drop was among males 18-49 viewers (45 percent decline from last week). Therefore, Impact made up for it with a big females 18-49 audience.

It appears that Impact got some run-off from a soap opera re-run that aired just before Impact in the new Thursday timeslot. The result was a 50/50 split of m18-49 and f18-49 viewers.
