Thursday Cable Ratings: Heat/Cavaliers Tops Eagles/Texans; Plus 'Burn Notice,' 'Always Sunny,' 'Real Housewives' & More

The Heat/Cavaliers NBA Game on TNT's 3.2 adults 18-49 rating topped all of cable and much of broadcast on Thursday night.

The Eagles/Texans NFL Network game scored a 2.2 adults 18-49 rating (that does not include the viewing on the local broadcast affiliates in the Philadelphia and Houston markets).

But take into account that the NFL Network is only in about 57 million households vs. TNT's 100 million.

Burn Notice kept slipping, down another tenth vs. 2 weeks ago to a 1.2 adults 18-49 rating. This fall/winter run has not been its ratings friend.
