No broken hearts here: ABC topped Monday in the key demo’s ratings with the finale of Matt James’ “Bachelor” season. NBC and “The Voice” drew more total viewers, however. Last night, Fox brought back “America’s Most Wanted.” It turns out, the return wasn’t wanted by all that many Americans. Also worth mentioning, The CW premiered Season 3 of “Bulletproof.” The Nielsen numbers for the cop drama imported from Britain were full of holes. Find out who won “The Bachelor” Season 25 here.
