It wouldn't have been in the 0.5, Maddie was in the episode :P In addition to the KCAs, Disney never airs new episodes on Saturdays so not many people probably knew/thought about watching a new episode of something that night. I don't think Disney promoted the whole Maddie guest star enough, if they would have made a bigger deal out of her guest appearance, it would have gotten more views. And Maddie guest starring is a pretty big deal, she was in the hit Chandelier video, she performed at the Grammys.... The main reason I'm upset by the ratings is because Disney put a special episode on a risky night and it failed. If that episode aired last Sunday or some other Sunday where it had no serious competition (really, KCAs? why would you compete with that, it's a popular award ceremony specially targetted at the demographic your channel is aimed at), the episode probably would have gotten in the high 2 million range, maybe even the 3 million range. Plus, A&A was nominated for an award so the fandom was highly conflicted. (Not to mention, the favorite TV show was announced during the premiere of the A&A episode :P)

Let's hope the Becky G episode does better. :P But K.C. Undercover got 1.97 views last Sunday, yikes. This makes me worried that maybe DC is falling into a deeper ratings drop, I really hope not. Cause the GMW finale got 2.28 views which was surprising to me.....did Disney do anything to make a large group mad?
