WEDNESDAY AUGUST 26, 2015 CABLE TV RATINGS

In a somewhat odd set of circumstances, HGTV's HOUSE HUNTERS led a very busy Wednesday on cable, delivering a 0.71 adults 18-49 rating, a 0.67 adults 18-34 rating, and just over 2.5 million viewers. This was about a tenth higher than second-ranked SUITS (USA Network) which logged a 0.62 in the key demo and 2.3 million viewers. SUITS also ranked second in adults 25-54 (0.77) behind History's AMERICAN PICKERS (0.82) and third in 18-34 (0.63). Over at Lifetime, LITTLE WOMEN LA logged a 0.61 F12-34 rating with 1.6 million viewers, and two episodes of TERRA'S LITTLE FAM were at 0.45/0.40 in that demo with ~1.3 million viewers for each. Other top F12-34 returns were MTV's CATFISH with the day's best 0.82 rating, AMERICA'S BEST DANCE CREW (0.47), ABC Family's YOUNG & HUNGRY (0.61) and Nick's THE JIM GAFFIGAN SHOW (0.49). Other scripted programs of note include Comedy Central's KEY & PEELE (565,000), Nick's IMPASTOR (637,000), ABC Family's KEVIN FROM WORK (261,000), and TV Land's THE EXES (352,000).
