The season six premiere of “American Horror Story” grabbed the top spot in the Wednesday cable ratings this week for FX with a 2.8 rating in adults 18-49, dominating the rest of the competition in the night.

Meanwhile, OWN’s “Queen Sugar” maintained a 0.6 for the second week in a row, while “Mr. Robot” continued to hold steady on USA with a 0.3 once again.
