Fox News had an even stronger presence than usual in the cable ratings Tuesday night.

The network captured the top two spots in the Tuesday cable chart, with its 9 p.m. “Hannity” and its 8 p.m. “Tucker Carlson Tonight” both scoring 0.8 ratings in the adults 18-49 demo. The History Channel’s “Curse of Oak Island” rounded out the night’s top 3 with the same 0.6 rating that its last episode scored on Dec. 17.

Is "Oak Island" about history? I guess it's on History Channel, but I don't watch that channel except for Pawn Stars. At least there's a little history in that show, with all the antiques that folks bring in to the shop.

I only like to watch Forged in Fire on History.

Oak Island is a search for Treasure said to be buried on the island and protected by a very elaborate, and deadly protection mechanism. Apparently, many have died trying to explore for the treasure in decades past.

Evidence of that elaborate protection mechanism have been discovered by the searchers who are funded by some billionaire.

I wanted to like Oak Island, but it bored me. I Love Ancient Aliens and American Pickers.
FNC should move Tucker to the 11pm slot and everyone else an hour earlier.

I like Tucker and usually watch him but not while he rants about a war. FGS Tucker, take a Midol.

Does the History Channel even do history any more?
As always South Park nailed a few years back with their Thanksgiving spoof of them. Sone & Parker the Jonathan Swifts of our time.

Why should I be surprised the SciFi Channel stopped doing SciFi years ago!

Agree, Tucker is unwatchable on his non interventionist rant.

I watch motivational shows. I watch Hoarders when I need to clean, My 600 Pound Life to keep from overeating, and Dr. Pimple Popper since I get checked every six months for skin cancer.

First heard about Oak Island back around 1968. Read about it in the Weekly Reader in grade school. It has always interested me.

Oak Island is still on? People watch a show about not finding treasure?

I wouldn’t watch Dr. Pimple Popper for a long time but i actually like it. It’s good to teach about skin diseases even if it gets a little gross at times.

Tucker's isolationist POV isn't helping his ratings.

Neither is his inability to recognize the Intel community has changed.

It’s not so much the grossness it’s just that after a while the pimples look the same.

I looked at a couple of commercials then read about it on Wikipedia. That was as close as I ever got to watching it.

Tucker has been assuming that any military action whatsoever taken against Iran would inevitably lead to an invasion, then occupation and nation-building. He should know by now that that’s not the way Trump conducts business.

I used to be so fascinated by Oak Island when I was a kid. I’ve never seen the show, is it good?

I was intrigued seeing a new show about “Oak Island” as I only saw one old episode of “In Search Of” about it, and would like to see some new info.

But when I saw “History Channel”, I’m gonna pass.

“Agree, Tucker is unwatchable on his non interventionist rant.”

I’m taking a break from the show for a few. Mr. “Does this make us safer and richer?” seriously needs to dial it back a notch. As much as we are all not high on another middle east war, we are also not shying away from our military defending our people and property when necessary, even if it doesnt directly affect our lives here.
