Fox’s Hell’s Kitchen was the top-rated program on Monday night.
Both episodes of the Gordon Ramsay series (6.1 million total viewers, 2.6 rating in adults 18-49 demographic) was the No. 1 program among the adults 18-49, adults 18-34 and teens demographics. Though both episodes slipped from the previous week (17 percent at 8 p.m. and 7 percent at 9 p.m.), Hell’s Kitchen powered Fox for the nightly victory in total viewers (6.1 million) and the key ad-coveted demo (2.6). Hour to hour, the series grew 13 percent in 18-49 over its 8 p.m. time slot.
ABC’s Bachelor Pad (6.6 million, 2.1) was steady with the previous week, though numbers are inflated due to local NFL preseason pre-emptions. A repeat of Castle (4.6 million, 1.0) followed. ABC placed second behind Fox in both viewers (5.9 million) and the demo (1.8).
NBC broadcast G4’s American Ninja Warrior‘s (4 million, 1.7) third season finale at 9 p.m. folllowing a repeat of America’s Got Talent.
