Saturday’s broadcast drew a measly 2.0 rating in key demo adults 18-49, which is down a whopping 23% from last week when Lady Gaga was at the hosting helm.

Deadline is reporting that SNL with host Hutcherson, 21, and musical guest Haim – averaged a 4.1 rating, down 14% from last week and the second lowest result for the season behind the October 26 show hosted by Ed Norton.
