Cablemetrics: American Horror Story, South Park, Atlanta, Better Things
These numbers are current through Wednesday, September 14.
WHAT MATTERS:
WHAT MATTERS:
- FX had the headline of the cable ratings week with an incredibly strong return from American Horror Story (2.78) at 10/9c. Despite the show's massive collapse last season (as low as a 0.85, and frequently in the vicinity of -30% year-to-year), the franchise somehow pulled itself all the way back to within 7% of last year's inflated premiere. This is AHS, so another collapse is probably coming, but it's kinda hard to imagine it being worse than last year. Even if it's exactly as bad as last year, that means -7% for the season, which would be extremely healthy!

Cablemetrics: Rick and Morty, Ballers, Ray Donovan
These numbers are current through Thursday, July 30.
WHAT MATTERS:
WHAT MATTERS:
- New this week: Adult Swim's animated comedy Rick and Morty, back for season two with a new series high 1.03. The show had palpable heat through season one, starting at 0.47 and gradually growing as high as 0.87 by season's end.
- I haven't said much about the HBO Sunday lineup since it premiered the week before I started doing this, but it's definitely worth noting that Ballers has solidified itself as one of the most successful recent comedy newbies on cable. Its average is only about a tenth behind that of fellow HBO comedy Silicon Valley, even though its lead-in is well over two points weaker. This week was perhaps its most impressive showing yet, as it surged to its second-best number (0.92) and had almost full retention of the gradually dropping True Detective (1.02).
