Primetime Cable Ratings: July 19, 2015

THE LAST SHIP edged out NAKED & AFRAID XL, in total viewers, by just 10,000 viewers, on Sunday Night. The XL edition of the Discovery reality series bested the regular edition by more than a half a million viewers, and posted the night's best 1.2 rating in Adults 18-49.

TRUE DETECTIVE does not appear to be the hot hit it was last year, as it has lost 800,000 viewers, or 24%, since the season premiere. in season one, the ratings were flat, after five episodes, and were about to grow towards the season finale.

The Spike Miniseries, TUT, did relatively well, with the first night grabbing 1.7 million viewers and should be the network's most watched program of the week.
