Can everyone please remember this is a brand new live show and needs time to find it's feet - it seems now in 2023 there is no patience from viewers to allow shows to try out new things and then see what works. Joe and his team will have no idea what is popular or not until they try it out.
The Last Leg is still very strong ratings wise, pulling in a steady weekly average of around 1.2 to 1.5 million a week. Which is perfect for Channel 4. Anything at airs at 10pm on Channel 4 and pulls in 1 million viewers or more is considered a success and The Last Leg ratings wise is very stable.
The Last Leg is more about reassurance now than being a cult hit. The show is now a decade old, and is now becoming Channel 4's answer to Have I Got News For You, where both shows are placed for stability. HIGNFY really lost it's bite when Angus Deayton was sacked in 2002, and has never really recovered from it but it still does stable business for BBC One ratings.
