– Ted Linhart, the VP of Program Research at USA Network has announced that the Live + Following 7 days rating information for the premiere of Tough Enough is in. When those numbers were factored in, the total audience went up 19% to nearly four million viewers. Also, the 18-49 demographic went up 17% to 2.3 million viewers.
