The top-rated program during prime time last weekend was the CNN Presents documentary, “Joe Biden Revealed,” while CNN’s documentary, “Sarah Palin Revealed,” the hour before was 2nd.

The two documentaries were first in both the A25-54 demo and in Total Viewers last weekend during prime time, airing Saturday night at 9:00pmET and 10:00pmET.

On Sunday, the documentaries replayed but the FNC replay of its Palin documentary was tops in the demo and in Total Viewers. The top rated single hour during the entire weekend was FNC’s 11:00amET hour on Sunday, focusing on Hurricane Ike coverage.
