THE SKED NETWORK SCORECARD – 8/19/14

 

America’s Got Talent dominated another slow summer Tuesday.

Daily Comp 3way 2014 TUE Aug 19

NBC:  FOOD FIGHTERS is currently up 0.1 to 1.1, and AMERICA’S GOT TALENT is down 0.2 to 1.9, but it wouldn’t be a surprise to see a shuffling between them when final numbers are released this afternoon.  In any case, Talent was by far the highest-rated show of the night.

ABC:  EXTREME WEIGHT LOSS fell 0.3 to 0.9, and 20/20, which last week aired a Robin Williams hour, plunged by almost a full ratings point to 0.8 with a less newsworthy topic.

CBS:  Reruns, led by NCIS at 1.1.

FOX:  Reruns, topped by FAMILY GUY at 0.7.

CW:  Reruns at 0.3/0.2.

CBS, which rushed to get EXTANT’s run over before its originally-scheduled finale during fall premiere week, is airing back-to-back episodes tonight.  On cable, USA has the midseason finale of SUITS.
