CABLE HIGHLIGHTS:  The CMT MUSIC AWARDS were simulcast across several Viacom networks, with the following results:  CMT at 0.32, Spike at 0.18, and TV Land at 0.08.  (Note:  because of the network’s split identity, the show received 2 ratings on Nickelodeon/Nick At Nite:  0.16 for the first hour, then 0.20 for the remainder of the telecast.)
