ESPN’s COLLEGE BASKETBALL hit the Top 10 at 0.58, and the CFP RANKINGS SHOW was up 0.08 to 0.43.  On Discovery, MOONSHINERS dropped 0.03 to 0.55.  Spike’s INK MASTER rose 0.03 to 0.55, with the REDEMPTION after-show down 0.02 to 0.28. On Comedy Central, TOSH.0 ticked down to 0.44, and DRUNK HISTORY jumped 0.12 to 0.40, probably courtesy of a guest appearance by Lin-Manuel Miranda.  On TLC, LITTLE PEOPLE, BIG WORLD fell 0.07 to 0.35, OUTDAUGHTERED slipped a tick to 0.30, and KATE PLUS 8 was also down a hundredth to 0.25. Lifetime’s DANCE MOMS gained 0.06 to 0.31.  On Food Network, CHOPPED dropped a tick to 0.30, and CHOPPED JR fell 0.08 to 0.19.  On BET, INK PAPER SCISSORS climbed 0.09 to 0.22, REAL HUSBANDS gained 0.02 to 0.21, and THE GARY OWEN SHOW was up 0.03 to 0.19.  On Tru, ADAM RUINS EVERYTHING dipped 0.02 to 0.21, and BILLY ON THE STREET was down 0.02 to 0.12.  MTV’s TEEN WOLF ticked up to 0.20, and SWEET/VICIOUS dropped off the chart, so we may not have its rating until tomorrow.  Syfy’s AFTERMATH was steady at 0.17. Freeform’s BEN & LAUREN held at 0.16.  TNT’s GOOD BEHAVIOR (an episode that had already “sneaked” last week at 0.12) was at 0.15, down 0.02 from last week’s official episode.
