Perhaps following a leap from the top rope, WWE content on USA pinned its competition to lead all cable telecasts in 18-49 delivery (live+SD) during the week of Feb 23-Mar 1. A pair of pro wrestling hours led the demo while posting an avg delivery of 3.0mln, with Bravo’s “Top Chef” (2.77mln) splitting the pair in 2nd.
Spots 4-6 were respectively filled by USA’s “Burn Notice” (2.08mln), an ep of “Family Guy” (1.99mln) on TBS, and E!’s “The Girls Next Door” (1.93mln). Completing the top 10 were another 2 eps of “Family Guy” on TBS, in 7th and 10th, that averaged 1.81mln, TLC’s “Jon & Kate Plus 8” (1.80mln) and a TNT airing of “Lord of the Rings: Return of the King” (1.78mln).
