Saturday Final Nationals: A&E, Hallmark and Adult Swim Each Benefit on the Night

4 Comments

Further proof that Saturday night is the least desirable evening of television is that NBC led this one on Aug. 12 among total viewers with an average of just 2.34 million.

But three cable networks were able to experience some Saturday positives. A&E was tops on all of television among adults 18-49 (approx. 0.56 rating) and among adults 25-54 (approx. 0.73 rating) from 8-11 p.m., thanks to “Live PD” and Adult Swim was No. 1 among adults 18-34 (approx. 0.43 rating).

The Hallmark original movie “Summer in the Vineyard” (2.05 million viewers) starring Rachael Leigh Cook (“She’s All That”) was cable’s most-watched telecast of Saturday prime time.

  1. Hi Doug. Unusual for me to have a Saturday request but I’m curious about one thing. Can you post the total viewership for the reruns of SpongeBob at 11:30 a.m. and Loud House at 12:30 p.m. on Nick? Thanks!

    • SpongeBob (Nickelodeon, 8/12 11:30 a.m.-noon)
      – 1.25 million viewers
      – 0.31 adults 18-49 rating

      Loud House (Nickelodeon, 8/12 12:30-1:00 p.m.)
      – 838,000 viewers
      – 0.19 adults 18-49 rating

  3. Also do you have ratings for SpongeBob at 10AM and Welcome to the Wayne at 10:30AM on Nickelodeon? Thanks
