Broadcast Official Nationals Program Ratings Chart  

CABLE HIGHLIGHTS:  The Wall came down, and so did another GAME OF THRONES ratings record, giving HBO’s behemoth a 5.70, up 0.99 from last week.  That lifted BALLERS by 0.29 to 1.37, although INSECURE only held at 0.66.  Adult Swim’s RICK & MORTY was big as well, up 0.11 to 1.37, with TIM & ERIC’S AWESOME SHOW at 0.42.  TNT’s THE LAST SHIP was at 0.31, in the range of last week’s 0.34/0.30 premiere.  FX’s THE STRAIN was steady at 0.31.  Starz opted not to air the season finale of POWER against THRONES, but did air SURVIVOR’S REMORSE, which might have been a bad idea:  it plunged 0.18 from last week’s premiere to 0.23.  On Showtime, RAY DONOVAN dipped 0.04 to 0.23, and the rest of the line-up was below the chart, with TWIN PEAKS down 0.02 to 0.08/267K, EPISODES down 0.01 to 0.04/239K, and DICE steady at 0.03/135K.  Hallmark’s CHESAPEAKE SHORES remained at 0.22.
