Overall, the ten episodes averaged a 2.8 Household rating, 2.8 million Total Viewers, and 419,000 Women 25-54, becoming the highest-rated and most-watched season of "Good Witch" in series history.

"As we wrap up Season Five on a high note, we are beginning to cook up some magic for next season that we know our fans will love."
