The latest rankings have come in for how original programming worked out on Saturday and it’s one where sports have shoved a whole lot of other programming off the schedule. With the NBA playoffs dominating, some NFL draft material and lots of talk, only two shows from the Toonami side made it onto the top twenty-five list for the night. That saw Dragon Ball Super recovering about 40,000 viewers that it shed last week while Dragon Ball Z Kai increased by about 23,000 from the previous week, but not enough to break the 800,000 mark.
