Preliminary Ratings: Monday 07/30/2018

THE BACHELORETTE sets the pace for an ABC win, on Monday night, attracting 5.4 million viewers and a 1.3 rating in Adults 18-49. But, that is down a half a million viewers, and a tenth of a point in the demo, from last week's episode. At 10 PM, THE PROPOSAL continues to disappoint, dropping just under half of its lead in audience.

NBC was a close second place, with AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR getting 5.3 million viewers and a 1.1 demo rating. That is up from last week's 5.1 million viewers and a 1.0 demographic rating. Dateline closed the night, winning the 10 PM hour.

FOX topped CBS for third as SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE draws 2.6 million viewers and a 0.6 demo rating.

In spite two hours of original programming, CBS ties The CW in the younger A18-34 demo.
