Primetime Cable Ratings: December 12, 2017

With all eyes on cable news (taking 9 of the top 12 spots), CURSE OF OAK ISLAND tops the cable chart of entertainment programs. It is the night's only entertainment program to attract over three million viewers.

The season finale of CHRISLEY KNOWS BEST drew 1.6 million viewers, ranking it #8 on this chart. That lead in didn't help the finale of THE CROMARTIES, which followed CHRISLEY, as it dropped over 50% of its lead in.

Falling on its royal face, TLC's special, WHEN HARRY MET MEGHAN A ROYAL ENGAGEMENT only grabbed 560,000 viewers and a low 0.1 rating in Adults 18-49.
