On Fox there were some contestant tears last night on Hell’s Kitchen (1.9/7) but Gordon Ramsey held it together even though the show was down 17% from last week. On MasterChef (2.0/7), eyes stayed dry but the show was also down, 13% from last week. Fox took the night among adults 18-49, but CBS’ repeats won in total viewers with an audience of 6.6 million.

Stern gamble is not paying off. No outrageousness. The Mr Nice act is dull and none of his danger even slightly appears. Don’t expect him back next year.
AGT didn’t air last night in Houston, the 4th largest city in America.
That Stern experiment is not getting the ratings up the way they need to and having that drivel of a reality show Love in the Wild is hurting NBC overall. Let’s hope that McCarthy show gets canceled once and for all and they seek some new judges for AGT. I take it the CW finished dead last or didn’t become relevant as they seem to be as of late.
Maybe Biff if you actually try to be truthful other than bash Stern, you would have notice that for one, it was a night before a holiday, so all shows were down and second, AGT won the night despite that. Funny how I did not see a post from you yesterday when the show killed in the ratings. You’re a joke Biff.
Ratings have been down all season, not just yesterday. And Stern has been a letdown as well. I’m a huge Stern radio fan but he’s been dull, dull, dull
For one, the season started early against season finals and two, the show is on against major competition and despite it all, its won the night every night. Don’t give me the whole “I’m a huge Stern fan” bit because that is used by bashers trying to make a name for themselves.
The fact that AGT still wins the nightly ratings clearly indicates that all the competition is even worse. Hard to believe…yet true.
On the boring scale AGT is also a ratings winner.
