Atlantis ratings hold steady with ‘Identity’

The final episodes of Stargate Atlantis continue to maintain steady ratings. This week numbers are in for “Identity,” episode number 18 of Season Five. The episode earned a 1.2 average household rating on December 12, even with the two previous episodes.

In “Identity,” a thief named Neeva Casol (guest star Dawn Olivieri) encounters an Ancient communications terminal, which trades her consciousness with Atlantis’s Dr. Jennifer Keller.

While the final, rounded-off rating did remain the same, the episode saw a slight bump in actual viewers. “Identity” was watched by about 1.655 million people (Live + Same Day), up from 1.489 million the previous week, according to TV By the Numbers.

Ghost Hunters led the SCI FI Channel for the week with a 1.9 rating. Sanctuary regained two-tenths to earn a 1.4 for “Warriors,” and ECW wrestling tied Atlantis with a 1.2 rating.

This Friday is the episode we’ve all been waiting for! Don’t miss “Enemy At the Gate”, the series finale of Stargate Atlantis, on January 9.
