TV Ratings: Steady ‘Talent’ Leads Tuesday, ‘CMA Fest’ Drops

NBC nabs an easy win among adults 18-49 as the country special falters from 2014.

TV Ratings: Steady 'Talent' Leads Tuesday,
America's Got Talent has been a cornerstone of NBC's summer schedule for nine seasons. The reality competition show, hosted by Nick Cannon and featuring judges Howard Stern, Melanie Brown, Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel, has regularly ranked as summer's No. 1 series. The veteran series also recently bested ABC's big swing singing competition Rising Star in the latter's series debut with a special Sunday broadcast.

America’s Got Talent topped Tuesday night for NBC, averaging an even 2.1 rating among adults 18-49. With an equally steady Hollywood Game Night, which averaged a 1.2 in the key demo, NBC easily topped the night among the broadcast nets.

ABC aired the annual CMA Music Festival — and while it may have boosted its typical Tuesday showing, the 1.2 rating among adults 18-49 marked a 37 percent drop from 2014. The show averaged 5.2 million viewers.

Zoo dropped from last week’s lifted showing on CBS, falling two-tenths of a point to a 1.0 rating among adults 18-49.

And with Knock Knock Live off the schedule, a repeat of Last Man on Earth didn’t do much worse for Fox — averaging a 0.3 rating with adults 18-49. Lead-in Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (0.6 adults) was steady with last week.
