Top 100 Primetime Cable: March 7 - 13, 2016

The old saying goes, 'Nothing can be certain, except death and taxes.' For the weekly cable ratings, It was just that. THE WALKING DEAD was, again, the #1 show, drawing 12.5 million viewers and a 6.0 rating in Adults 18-49. Followed by a flood of political programs, including the GOP Debate. So, for cable, Nothing is certain but THE WALKING DEAD and Politics at the top of the ratings chart.

TALKING DEAD was the non-scripted original series of the week, ranking third with 5.1 million viewers. That topped the #2 show in the genre, FIXER UPPER, with 3.3 million viewers.

Nickelodeon's 2016 KID'S CHOICE AWARDS did well, ranking 14th on the week, getting 3.3 million viewers to tune into the annual awards program. it is only down about 10% from last years awards show. Following the show was the series premiere of SCHOOL OF ROCK. It held onto 2.4 million viewers from its lead in, or about 72% retention. Not a bad start for the kids comedy.

The bar is being raised higher and higher as it took drawing 1.8 million viewers to be within the top 100 this week. If the CW was a cable network, it would have had just one series on this chart.
