Turner Network Television and Nickelodeon scored rare fourth-quarter ratings victories last week over ESPN, which typically dominates cable ratings in the fall thanks to its National Football League action.
Nick averaged a 2.1 rating in prime time with 2.42 million viewers and TNT notched a 2.1 rating with 2.37 million viewers during the week of Dec. 1 to Dec. 7, according to Nielsen Media Research data.
ESPN collected a 1.9 rating with 2.2 million viewers. The sports net still boasted the week's highest-rated cable program, the Dec. 7 NFL contest between the Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons, which posted a 7.7 rating.
Lifetime also turned in a 1.9 average in prime with 2.1 million viewers and USA Network averaged a 1.8 rating and 2.1 million viewers.
Fox Business Network begins broadcasting from its new high-tech Studio G, overlooking Manhattan from the 3rd floor of News Corp. headquarters, on April 20. B&C got an early peek at the new space.
