Demo Profile 2015 WED.05 Aug

NBC:  After 1.4 for a AMERICA’S GOT TALENT clip show, down 0.4 from last week’s 2-hour anniversary edition, MR. ROBINSON debuted with a fair 1.2.  By 9:30PM, though, that was down to 1.0, which doesn’t bode well for next week.  The night wrapped up with LAST COMIC STANDING down 0.1 to 1.4.

CW:  AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL had a 0.4 season premiere, the same as in 2014.  A WICKED OFFER premiered at 0.3.

FOX:  MASTERCHEF and HOME FREE were each down 0.1, respectively to 1.4 and 0.8.

CBS:  BIG BROTHER rose 0.3 to 2.1, then 2 hours of EXTANT were steady at last week’s 0.8.

ABC:  CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP held at its series low 0.8, below both rerun sitcoms that preceded it.

PROJECT RUNWAY returns to Lifetime tonight, and DATES airs its last 2 episodes on CW, but there’s no question about the night’s major event:  the series finale of THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART.

COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
