Premium cable is returning some important numbers of its own. The fourth season of Showtime's "The Tudors" is up 22% to 883,000 viewers. That makes the premiere of Season 4 (the show's final season)
the highest-rated episode in the series' history. "The Tudors," which loosely chronicles the reign of Henry VIII, saw two-thirds of the weekly viewing for Season 3 outside its premiere night. Weekday
replays, DRV and on-demand captured most of the audience.
