Up against the Emmy Awards, and with many series having their season finales last week, things were fairly quiet on the cable ratings front Sunday night. A new Real Housewives of New Jersey drew a 1.5 adults 18-49 rating to lead the night, up 0.2 from last week. Meanwhile, Breaking Bad dropped 0.2 from the previous week to a 0.7 adults 18-49 rating, the same as MTVs Teen Dads and the U.S. version of Top Gear.
History's Ice Road Truckers scored a 1.0 adults 18-49 rating.
We only receive the top 100 cable shows for adults 25-54 for the whole day from our principal source. If you don’t see an original episode of a show here, it’s because it wasn’t in the top 100. I attempt to filter out repeats, kids shows, and most non-primetime shows. Will add extras that come from other sources later as we receive them.
