Top 100 Primetime Cable: December 25 - 31, 2017

The final Monday Night Football game of the season was the #1 cable program, for the week of Christmas. The Oakland vs Philadelphia game drew 11.7 million viewers and a 3.5 rating in Adults 18-49. ESPN also took the next six spots, with a flood of bowl games through the week.

The Saturday night Hallmark movie was the top scripted original and #8 overall, attracting 3.9 million viewers for the romance movie. A Christmas day episode of WHEN CALLS THE HEART was right behind, drawing 3.6 million viewers. Both Hallmark shows posted a 0.5 rating in Adults 18-49.

CNN won the New Year Eve battle, topping FOX News 2.2 million viewers to 2.0 million, respectively. For CNN, it was the most watched NYE show, with Anderson Copper, in years. I guess the exit of Kathy Griffith was a win-win for CNN and all their viewers!
