CABLE HIGHLIGHTS:  Discovery’s ALASKAN BUSH PEOPLE took the Wednesday cable title, up 0.03 to 1.08, with lead-out MEN WOMEN WILD up 0.04 to 0.50.  ESPN’s NBA double feature was at a lopsided 0.95 for the late game (Golden State vs. Phoenix) and 0.55 for the one that preceded it (Memphis vs. Chicago).  FX’s AMERICAN HORROR STORY: HOTEL dropped 0.13 to 0.94.  On History, AMERICAN PICKERS (which aired a clip show last week) was at 0.53.  CONAN (TBS) was unusually high at 0.52–up 0.21 from Tuesday–so perhaps there was a particularly big guest.  HGTV’s TINY HOUSE HUNTERS hit the Top 10 at 0.41, with lead-in PROP BROS at 0.40.  MTV’s THE CHALLENGE gained 0.04 to 0.40, with a related lead-out special at 0.20.  On Syfy, the final installment of CHILDHOOD’S END edged up 0.02 from Tuesday to 0.33, and an early airing (commercial-free) of the pilot for January’s THE MAGICIANS series was at 0.26, down a tick from Tuesday’s episode of THE EXPANSE (slightly up in the older-skewing total viewers metric), but with far less marketing behind it.  On Food Network, CUTTHROAT KITCHEN and CELEBRITY FOOD FIGHT were both up 0.03, respectively to 0.26/0.24.  A&E aired a WHO IS DONALD TRUMP? special at 0.19.  BET’s THE WESTBROOKS fell a tenth to 0.18.  On DAM, IMPACT WRESTLING appears to have aired only at 11PM, with no primetime showing:  it was at 0.04/155K.
