Final Broadcast Ratings: August 5, 2014

ABC edged out NBC for the top spot, thanks to the county music special CMA MUSIC FEST: COUNTY'S NIGHT TO ROCK preempting the low rated reality series of the night. CMA collected 7.3 million viewers and a 1.9 demo rating, over three hours. The special was off by about one million viewers and over 10% in the demo, from last year's edition. But, that is pretty much double what EXTREME WEIGHT LOSS and CELEBRITY WIFE SWAP grab on a summer Tuesday night.

NBC needs to be concerned about AMERICA'S GOT TALENT. Just from last week, the series dropped 1.6 million viewers and 17% in the A18-49 ratings. Yes, it was still the #1 show of the night, but it is a slowly sinking in the ratings.

Cooking competition series FOOD FIGHTERS was down, slightly, from last week, but still up from the series premiere.

ABC - 7.3 million viewers, 1.9 rating in A18-49
