Farrah Abraham brings big rating to the show

Farrah’s first  full episode the next week saw another sizable uptick as ratings rose to 1.822 million. This week’s episode would seem to indicate the ratings may have plateaued with a very similar, but still very strong, 1.855 million viewers tuning in.

Numbers do not lie!
