The second episode of ABC’s new “V” show dropped in the ratings — which is both expected and a little bothersome, according to THR. The bothersome part is that the show was down 27% from its record-setting pilot last week, a notable drop as it marks the largest fall from a premiere for a scripted show all season. The good news? Last week’s numbers were record-setting for a reason, so a drop in numbers from week one to week two was entirely expected.

In all, “V’s” second episode, “There is No Normal Anymore” was watched by 10.7 million viewers and drew a 3.8 rating among adults 18-49. According to THR, those are respectable numbers for a new show, and if the show can maintain it, ABC will realize they have a potential hit on their hands. Or at the very least, a stable show capable of building momentum.
