Witches centered on a family of witches led by Julia Ormond∫ Rachel Boston∫ Jenna Dewan Tatum and Madchen Amick. Eric Winter, Daniel DiTomasso and Christian Cooke also starred in the series loosely based on Melissa de la Cruz's novels that was developed by Maggie Friedman. Fox 21 and 3 Arts produced the series.
Witches' first season averaged 3 million viewers, 1.7 million of them in the advertiser-coveted adults 18-49 demo when DVR is factored in. When it returned for its sophomore run earlier this year, it bled viewership, ending the season with just a little more than 1 million to the two-hour Oct. 3 finale in same-day ratings.
