THE SKED Sunday Cable Ratings Scorecard – 12/15/13

 

SHOWTIME:  The season finale of HOMELAND climbed by 300K total viewers and 0.1 in the 18-49 demo to 2.4M/0.9.   The MASTERS OF SEX finale was more subdued, holding even at 1.2M total viewers but declining 0.4 in the demo to 0.4.

USA:  The 2-hour PSYCH musical special did nicely, above its most recent regular episode numbers in 18-49s at 0.9 and around even in total viewers at 2.2M.  Its regular season premieres on Wed January 8.

LIFETIME:  The WITCHES OF EAST END season finale nosed up by 350K total viewers and 0.1 in the demo to 1.7M/0.6.  (It was preempted last week for the multi-network Bonnie & Clyde, an odd piece of scheduling in this case.)

BRAVO:  REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA was the night’s highest rated show on cable, but down 300K total viewers and 0.2 in the demo to 3.4M/1.5.  THICKER THAN WATER had 2M total viewers and 0.9 in the demo, roughly the same as last week’s Shahs of Sunset.

HBO:  As usual, none of the specific ratings for TREME, GETTING ON or JAM’IE: PRIVATE SCHOOL GIRL made the generally available lists of the night’s higher-rated programs.
