CABLE HIGHLIGHTS:   On BBCAmerica, after DOCTOR WHO fell 0.04 to 0.17, the final season of ORPHAN BLACK premiered at an anemic 0.07, although that was down only 0.01 from the 2016 premiere (on a Thursday in April).  On AMC, back-to-back season finale episodes of THE SON were at 0.13/0.06 (the latter hour had 478K total viewers, less than half 9PM’s 1.16M, remarkably lower than the 9PM episode considering that the people watching at 9PM would presumably want to know how the season ended).  OWN’s FOR BETTER OR WORSE returned with a pair of 0.13 episodes.

HBO continues to label its theatrical movies as “originals,” which is why THE ACCOUNTANT is charted as Saturday’s top cable show. The actual #1 original was A&E’s LIVE PD, up 0.11 from last Saturday to 0.51.  Nickelodeon’s 10AM SPONGEBOB was strong once again, up 0.03 to 0.44, with lead-out ALVIN & THE CHIPMUNKS steady at 0.35, and the lead-out to that, BUNSEN IS A BEAST, up a tick to 0.27.  The Adult Swim late-night line-up performed as follows:  DRAGON BALL Z up 0.02 to 0.42 (the primetime edition fell 0.07 to 0.25), ATTACK ON TITAN up 0.05 to 0.36, TOKYO GHOUL up 0.01 to 0.29, MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM up 0.06 to 0.29, HUNTER X HUNTER up 0.05 to 0.30/574K, NARUTO up 0.03 to 0.27/513K, and GHOST IN THE SHELL up 0.06 to 0.26/469K.  Fox Sports 1’s UFC FIGHT NIGHT was at 0.40, with the PRELIMS at 0.23.  On HGTV, SAVING GALVESTON was at 0.32, HOUSE HUNTERS RENOVATION was at 0.28, and WE BOUGHT THE FARM was at 0.24/0.26, compared to last week’s 0.22/0.26. Hallmark’s original movie THE PERFECT BRIDE was at 0.28. ID’s FATAL VOWS rose 0.02 to 0.26.  On Food Network, KITCHEN AT FN gained 0.02 to 0.23, and PIONEER WOMAN was also up 0.02 to 0.22.
