Tyler Perry’s Sistas | Season 8 Ratings Took Another Huge Hit This Week

The ratings for Episode 4 of Sistas are in, and it’s clear they took a hit, falling to 0.78. While this isn’t the lowest in the show’s history—Season 1, Episode 3 still holds that title with a 0.74—it’s still uncomfortably close. Episode 1 of this season had a much stronger 0.88, but numbers have been steadily declining since Episode 2 dropped to a 0.73.

With this week’s election likely drawing viewers away, some anticipated the dip. But looking ahead, Episode 5 will be key, as no major competing events are expected. This episode’s performance could serve as a litmus test for how the season will fare moving forward. Can it capture viewers’ attention and bring the numbers back up?

The writers crafted an intense cliffhanger in Episode 4, as we saw Gary wake up, only to start foaming at the mouth. Fans are now left wondering: will he survive, and if so, will he reveal who attacked him? This shocking moment could be the hook needed to reignite interest and raise ratings to the high 0.75 range or above.

If Episode 5 doesn’t deliver, though, there’s a chance that Sistas could be headed for a season-long ratings slump. For now, it’s a waiting game to see if viewers are as invested in Gary’s fate as the writers hope.
