Top 100 Primetime Cable: September 21 - 27, 2015

As will be the case for just a couple more weeks, MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL, on ESPN, was this week's #1 cable program. But, the numbers are down from the season opening doubleheaders. The COLTS vs JETS game only drew 12.5 million viewers and a 4.7 rating in Adults 18-49. The main reason for the low numbers was a game that was dominated by the Jets, through most of the game.

FEAR THE WALKING DEAD was the top scripted program of the week and #2 overall. Episode five of the six episode season held up well considering the network premieres of the night, sing slight gains in both categories.

THE HAVES & HAVE NOTS closed out its summer season, pulling in one of the better numbers of its season. It was the #3 program of the week and helped OWN, along with IF LOVING YOU IS WRONG (#13),  record its best single ratings night in network history.

MOUNTAIN MEN was the top reality series, ranking 16th on the week. The series drew 2.8 million viewers, on a Thursday night.
