NBC:  Even though a 10th anniversary AMERICA’S GOT TALENT special gave LAST COMIC STANDING a better lead-in than it had last week from an AGT clip show (1.6 vs. 1.2), COMIC slipped 0.1 to 1.4.

CBS:  BIG BROTHER and EXTANT both held last week’s numbers, 1.8 and 0.7 respectively, with EXTANT lower than the 0.8 CRIMINAL MINDS rerun that followed it.

FOX:  MASTERCHEF lost 0.1 to 1.4, and HOME FREE was steady at 0.9.

ABC:  CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP remained at 0.8, airing after 2 hours of sitcom reruns at 0.7-0.9.
