With THE WALKING DEAD done until February, FOOTBALL reigns as the king of cable TV. Both the Monday night and Thursday night games ranked first and second, respectively, in the weekly rankings. MNF generated ratings near its 2014 season average, 11.8 million viewers and a 4.1 demo rating., but TNF posted its best numbers of the season, without a CBS simulcast, commanding 9.1 million viewers and a 3.2 demo. The Thursday night match up was the only non-division game of the year, and featured two of the best fan followed teams, the Cowboys and Da Bears.

THE LIBRARIANS was the top scripted program of the week, drawing 5.4 million viewers and a 1.3 demo rating, for the #3 spot. It edged SONS OF ANARCHY (#4) by 300k, in total viewers, but the FX drama doubled up THE LIBRARIANS, in the A18-49 ratings, 2.6 to 1.3.

Rounding out the top five is the top reality series of the week, GOLD RUSH. Once again, the Discovery network series bests shows like THE REAL HOUSEWIVES and LOVE AND HIP HOP for the top spot in the genre.

Christmas movies are increasing there presence in the top 100. There are seven holiday movies/spcials in just the top 25, with Hallmark posting the best holiday program of the week. The Sunday night movie placed 7th for the week, with 4.1 million viewers.
