LOS ANGELES, June 2 -- Ratings for Part Two of Lifetime Television's original miniseries event Maneater, starring Sarah Chalke (Lifetime's Why I Wore Lipstick to My Mastectomy, Scrubs) and based on Gigi Levangie Grazer's (The Starter Wife) best-selling book, broke network records for the year on Sunday, May 31. The miniseries' finale doubled the Women 18-49 performance of the previous night to become the Network's highest rated original longform of the year in the demographic with a 2.1 rating. Part Two of the miniseries generated a 2.5 Household rating, averaging more than 2.9 million viewers.

The Sunday 7:00 PM encore presentation of Maneater Part One posted a solid 1.1 rating among Women 18-49, surpassing its debut performance the prior evening in the demographic.
