Primetime Cable Ratings: October 9, 2017

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL posts its lowest ratings of the season, excluding the 10 PM, on opening weekend. just 10.3 million viewers and a 3.7 rating in the A18-49 demographic, tuned into the NFC North battle. That is down 1.6 million viewers and six-tenths of a point in the demo, from last week.

Game 4 of the ALDS series, featuring the Indians and the Yankees grabbed 4.5 million viewers, perhaps the main reason for the season low on MNF, as the Yankees come back to win the game and tie the series two game each. Look for Wednesday's decisive game five to post the best numbers of the series for FS1.

TBS did not have the same success with its Dodgers vs Diamonds game, which attracted just 2.2 million viewers. But, the game did not start until 10 PM, Easter Time and was the final game in a three game sweep by LA.

LOVE & HIP HOP: HOLLYWOOD season finale brought in 2.1 million viewers and a 1.1 rating in Adults 18-49.
