Updated weekly ranking of top cable and broadcast programs.  A broadcast network reclaimed the top spot this past week (CBS’s Saturday night telecast of the Syracuse-Michigan Final Four game), mainly because Walking Dead concluded its season last week.  Otherwise, AMC would have been atop the heap again.   There are a lot of empty spaces on this week’s chart compared to last week’s:   many shows that were in the low- to mid-2 rating range last week were in repeats this week.
