NBC absolutely dominated another Tuesday primetime thanks to “America’s Got Talent.”
On the back of its big two-hour reality competition, NBC actually topped ABC, CBS, Fox and The CW combined in the key 18-49 ratings demographic. Plus, lead-in “AGT” handed the 10 p.m. “Hollywood Game Night” its third-largest audience ever — you’re welcome, Jane Lynch.
While a very distant second, ABC’s “Bachelor in Paradise” ended up as the No. 2 show on broadcast last night. Fox finished behind both Univision and Telemundo in the main demo, airing just reruns.
NBC was first in ratings with a 2.1 rating/9 share in the advertiser-coveted age-range and in total viewers with an average of 10.1 million, according to preliminary numbers. “America’s Got Talent” at 8 scored a 2.6/11 and 12.6 million viewers. “Hollywood Game Night” at 10 landed a 1.1/5 and 5.2 million viewers.
ABC was second in ratings with a 0.8/3 and third in viewers with 3.1 million. “Bachelor in Paradise” at 8 posted a 1.1/4 and 3.8 million viewers. At 10, “Somewhere Between” settled for a 0.4/2 and 1.7 million viewers.
Telemundo was third in ratings with a 0.7/3 and fourth in viewers with 1.8 million.
