ESPN once again was the top cable brand for American viewers, claiming the number five spot overall for the fifth year in a row. HISTORY moved up to number six, surpassing Discovery, now in seventh, for the first time since 2007. HBO rejoins the top 10 after two years of absence.

Syfy, which has made it into the top 15 for all six years of the study, is at number 13. Comedy Central holds steady at 14 and TBS remains at 15. AMC landed at 18, quite a jump from its number 33 spot last year and 46 spot in 2011. MTV dropped out of the top 20. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">The sixth edition of the independent tracking survey is based on interviews with 1,400 American consumers aged 12-plus in spring 2013.
