*Welcome to our weekly snapshot of TV by the numbers, highlighting the most-watched shows and networks for February 12-18, with insights from* [*Inscape*](http://inscape.tv/?ref=tvrev2beta2.ghost.io)*, the currency-grade smart TV ACR data provider and data technology division of Vizio. Data is linear, live TV only and includes all episode types (new and reruns). Rankings are by percent share duration (i.e., time spent watching).*

Football may be over for now, but other sports are moving up to take the top spots for viewership, led by men’s college basketball in first place with a 2.07% viewership share. PGA Tour golf putts into third place with a 1.13% share. 

Some additional insights about the top programming on TV:

- With regular season games paused for the All-Star Break, NBA slips to tenth place with 0.62% of watch-time for the week.
- Ranking newcomers include *Snapped: Killer Couples*, which jumps into No. 13 thanks to marathons on Oxygen, and Paramount Network darling *Yellowstone*, which aired numerous episodes back-to-back at the end of the week.
- Several news programs move up the ranking, with *CNN News Central* seeing the biggest bump, from No. 32 to No. 22\. Others making inroads include *America’s Newsroom with Bill Hemmer & Dana Perino*, *America Reports with John Roberts & Sandra Smith*, *The Five*, *ABC World News Tonight With David Muir* and *NBC Nightly News With Lester Holt*.
