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.
