Syfy Channel’s returning dramas gained a little ground in the ratings last Monday night, but newcomer Alphas shed some viewers. Here are the numbers for Syfy’s original dramas for the second week of the summer season.
In its second week Eureka gained 7 percent, up to 2.162 million viewers (Live + Same Day).
Warehouse 13 won the night with an impressive 2.457 million viewers for its second episode of Season Three. This is a 5 percent improvement over the July 11 premiere).
Finally, Alphas capped off the night with 2.225 million live viewers — still strong, despite a drop of about 12 percent from the series premiere.
In its season premiere at the end of Week 1, Haven picked up 1.884 million viewers. (WWE drew 2.552 million that night as Haven‘s lead-in.) This is the show’s best performance since mid-season last summer, and 11 percent better than the first season finale.
UPDATE: In its second week Haven slipped slightly to 1.837 million (down 2 percent), but held steady with a 0.5 rating in the adults 18-49 demographic.
Syfy’s new Monday line-up continues tonight starting at 8/7c.

Still not ever watching anything on this channel again ill download Warehouse 13 and support it that way. Sorry syfy you ruined the network forever. It'll be a dead network soon enough!
Are we gonna get this every week? A detailed examination of all ratings on a channel most users here seem to have turned their back on anyway, only to see how Stargate Universe might have done had it remained on the airwaves and focus on nitpicking ultimately irrelevant scheduling choices rather than at least discuss the underlying critical quality of SGU?
Has this site got nothing better to do?
Happened to be flipping channels and gave Alphas a 2nd chance - still not very interesting…
Downloading too out of question to give any audience to Skyfy
Also don't forget those are summer numbers, there is no competition, no Glee no Dancing With the Stars...
@The Tenth Doctor. Don't read it if you're not interested.
id more support a wordban on "syfy" then i would any show left on that network.
"Happened to be flipping channels and gave Alphas a 2nd chance – still not very interesting…"
Really? I thought the second episode was noticeably better than the pilot. Maybe not the best thing I've ever seen, but certainly showed promise for more interesting episodes to come. Of course, you can attribute that to the new showrunner of the series: Ira Steven Behr. The guy did wonders for "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" and "The 4400", so why should this one be any different?
@Starscapesg1 - If all you're doing is downloading it, you're not supporting the show in any way.
@The Tenth Doctor - You're reading a site that apparently doesn't interest you. Don't you have anything better to do? The ratings aren't about SGU, they're about related genre shows. Stargate is obviously over so there are no Stargate ratings to talk about anymore. For the site to continue, they obviously have to talk about things other than Stargate.
@iom666 - Downloading serves no purpose other than your own.
How can anyone honestly think that downloading shows benefits the show in any way after everything that's happened with SGU? The only place the show was popular was in downloads...that got it cancelled. Way to support the show!
The one that kills me is Haven. Good God that is an awful show. I made it through a couple of episodes and realized I was taking up valuable space on the DVR. The fact that this show plays while SGU got shelved is just plain wrong.
@mythos I watched SGU live every week and I don't really care if downloading Warehouse 13 doesn't help I just don't want that sh*t house network syfy getting any support!
