CABLE HIGHLIGHTS:  AMC’s FEAR THE WALKING DEAD needed to get out of town before Westeros takes over Sunday cable, and its 2-hour midseason finale was at 0.93/0.83, compared to last week’s 0.83 (down much more steeply from the 1.88 May 2016 midseason finale, which went head-to-head with GAME OF THRONES), with TALKING DEAD up a tick to 0.31.  The opening chapter of HBO’s THE DEFIANT ONES was at 0.29.  Spike’s ONE NIGHT ONLY: ALEC BALDWIN special was at 0.16

History’s AMELIA EARHART special rode a tide of news stories to a strong 0.86.  On TLC, 90 DAY FIANCE climbed 0.11 from last week’s holiday weekend airing to 0.47, and SPOUSE HOUSE debuted at 0.18.  On Food Network, FOOD NETWORK STAR grew by 0.06 to 0.47, and GUY’S GROCERY GAMES was up 0.05 to 0.27.  HGTV’s many Sunday shows were led by MEXICO LIFE at 0.45/0.44 compared to last week’s 0.42/0.39, and BEACH HUNTERS at 0.45/0.44, compared to 0.42/0.38.  On Bravo, REAL HOUSEWIVES OF THE POTOMAC rose 0.03 to 0.44, and the season finale of INVITE ONLY CABO was down 0.02 to 0.18.  Univision’s COPA ORO soccer match was at 0.42.  ID’s AMERICAN MONSTER was at 0.36, and ON THE CASE was up 0.06 to 0.34.  On E!, BOTCHED climbed 0.05 to 0.32, and FAMOUSLY SINGLE ticked up to 0.16.  Discovery aired a SHARK WEEK preview show at 0.29.
