Ratings: Broadcast Finals for April 8, 2014

CBS and NBC split the Tuesday night leadership, but I would say NBC is the real winner of the night.

NBC's THE VOICE posted a season low with it's 2.9 rating in Adults 18-49. the first time this season it has gone below the 3.0 mark. The series is down nearly two points since it's Tuesday debut and off by 8%, week-to-week. It barely beat NCIS, which drew a six week high 2.6 rating and is up 8% from last week's episode. with roughly 6 weeks left, will THE VOICE follow AMERICAN IDOL and go below a 2.0?

It looks like the the release of the CAPTAIN AMERICA movie did nothing for AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. The series dropped about 15% in both viewers and demo ratings, from the previous week. What was once a very promising new hit show for ABC, is now looking like a major disappointment.

No good news on FOX. The best it could do is thst THE MINDY PROJECT tied ABC's TROPHY WIFE for 4th place, in the demo. Both series have earned a cancellation, but for some reason, FOX is giving us a third season of MINDY.
