Broadcast Official Nationals Program Ratings Chart  

 

CABLE HIGHLIGHTS:  Nostalgia for HBO’s GAME OF THRONES was limited, as the documentary THE LAST WATCH had only a fraction of the show’s ratings at 0.46.  Adult Swim’s THE JELLIES was at 0.28/0.26, compared to last week’s 0.32/0.29.  Hallmark’s WHEN CALLS THE HEART gained 0.02 to 0.20.  In something of an upset, the season finale of A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES outrated the season finale of stablemate KILLING EVE on one of their shared networks.  On AMC, WITCHES rose 0.02 to 0.13, and on BBCAmerica it was up 0.02 to 0.05.  On AMC, KILLING EVE fell 0.05 to 0.12, and on BBCAmerica it ticked down to 0.08.  On Showtime, the live-action line-up returned from a week off, with BILLIONS down 0.03 to 0.12 and THE CHI down 0.02 to 0.11, while OUR CARTOON PRESIDENT was steady with last week’s 0.05.  On Starz, THE SPANISH PRINCESS held at 0.07, and the 2-episode season premiere of VIDA (the entire season is also available via streaming and VOD) was off the chart at 0.03/135K and 0.01/107K.  

TLC’s 90 DAY FIANCE led unscripted at 0.46/0.45, compared to last week’s 0.48/0.43.  Food Network’s WORST COOKS IN AMERICA rose 0.09 to 0.35.  On E!, KEEPING UP WITH THE KARDASHIANS returned at 0.34.  ESPN’s MLB game was at 0.30, and its morning FORMULA 1 race was at 0.27, followed by a USA WOMEN’S SOCCER match at 0.21.  Univision’s LIGA match was at 0.30.  HGTV’s line-up was led by ISLAND LIFE at 0.28/0.25, compared to last week’s 0.32/0.24.  Bravo’s REAL HOUSEWIVES OF THE POTOMAC fell 0.11 to 0.25.  ID’s ON THE CASE was steady at 0.23.
