Broadcast Official Nationals Program Ratings Chart

CABLE HIGHLIGHTS: Most regular cable series took July 4th off, leaving the way clear for ESPN2 to have an unusual #1 ranking with its Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest (officially GREAT AMERICAN EVENTS), down 0.02 from 2017 to 0.43, and also the #5 show with, um, CORNHOLE at 0.19. On HGTV, HOUSE HUNTERS dropped 0.08 from last Wednesday to 0.21, and HOUSE HUNTERS INTL was down 0.09 to 0.19. The ESPN mother network had WIMBLEDON coverage at 0.21, and MLB games at 0.19/0.17. Food Network’s GUY’S GROCERY GAMES fell 0.14 to 0.20. Nickelodeon’s 10AM THOMAS AND FRIENDS was #9 for the day at 0.18. (Cable news, FYI, slotted the night’s shows as “specials” so they won’t be included in their season averages.) Cartoon Network’s STEVEN UNIVERSE was at 0.15. The lone adult-oriented scripted original of the night, USA’s COLONY, ticked down to 0.14. Discovery’s STICKER SHOCK was down 0.04 to 0.14. El Rey’s LUCHA UNDERGROUND was steady at 0.02.
