Stars Earn Stripes Cast Portrait - H 2012
NBCAfter two weeks of unstoppable Olympic momentum, NBC ceded its ratings crown to Fox on Monday night. With the premiere of Gordon Ramsay’s Hotel Hell and the return of original broadcasts of Hell’s Kitchen, Fox averaged a 2.3 rating among adults 18-49 and 5.8 million viewers for the night.
Hotel Hell, which earned a 1.9 adults rating at 8 p.m., ranks as the highest rated new broadcast series of the summer among adults 18-49 — though that distinction carries little weight this year. Hell’s Kitchen topped all other programs during the night. It was up a tenth of a point from it’s last original, posting a 2.7 adults rating.
