Cable Ratings Round-Up (Week of April 16-22): 'Sopranos,' 'Earth' Continue Reign
By The Futon Critic Staff (TFC)

LOS ANGELES (thefutoncritic.com) -- HBO's "The Sopranos" (6.9 million, #1) and Discovery Channel's "Planet Earth" - 8:00 (5.1 million, #4), 9:00 (5.6 million, #2) and 10:00 (3.4 million, #T14) - once again dominated the top 15 of all cable programs last week.

New episodes of fellow HBO series "Entourage" (3.6 million, #10) and USA's "WWE Raw" - 9:00 (4.8 million, #T6) and 10:00 (4.8 million, #T6) also made the cut, as did ESPN's Yankees/Red Sox coverage on Sunday (5.5 million, #3) and a Saturday repeat of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" (3.7 million, #9).

Outside the leaderboard, lackluster was the work to describe the time slot premiere of Bravo's "Shear Genius" (894,000), the season finale of MTV's "My Super Sweet 16" (812,000) and the return of VH1's "Celebrity Fit Club" (1.2 million).

And finally, MyNetworkTV still remains out of the broadcast hunt as its top draw last week was Thursday's Tom Hanks movie "The Ladykillers" (1.3 million), nearly double the numbers of its original series "American Heiress" (610,000) and "Saints and Sinners" (535,000).
