Whiskey Cavalier Season 1 Episode 2 scored 5.3 million total viewers and a 0.9 rating.

Elsewhere, Survivor was steady with 7.3 million total viewers and a 1.5 rating.
The World's Best followed with 2.9 million viewers and a 0.6 rating, up two-tenths week-to-week.
CBS would have been wise to save this series for the summer and air The Amazing Race out of Survivor.
The CW's rotation of Riverdale (1 million total viewers/0.3 rating) and All American (0.6 million total viewers/0.2 rating) were steady.
24 Hours to Hell and Back had 2.7 million viewers and a 0.8 rating, marking season lows.
