Disney Night is usually a big one for ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” — and having a double elimination never hurts. But the combination of those two factors didn’t help ABC all that much on Tuesday.
CBS, which finished first in total viewers — again — won last night with three hours of “FBI” procedurals. The network tied NBC for first place in primetime ratings among adults 18-49.
Oh, about that “DWTS” double elimination: we can say goodbye to Matt James and Brian Austin Green.
CBS and NBC tied for first in ratings, both with a 0.6 in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic. CBS was first in total viewers with an average of 5.7 million, according to preliminary numbers. NBC was second in total viewers with 4.9 million.
