Preliminary Ratings: Tuesday 09/09/14

Tuesday night on the broadcast networks was very light on the amount of choices to watch. just ten programs between the five networks, but seven were original programs. NBC swept the night, with CBS edging ABC for second place and FOX a close fourth.

CBS has the top program in the A18-49 ratings, as BIG BROTHER, now on Tuesdays with FOOTBALL on Thursdays, grabbing a 2.3 rating. Very much on par with what the series has been drawing all season. But, the nightly average tanked with the special FASHION ROCK concert, live from New York. The special dropped 75% of the demo audience and close to 4.5 million viewers. It is a time slot filler for summer, but that is horrible numbers.

Speaking of tanking, UTOPIA had its Tuesday night premiere to prett horrible numbers. just 2.5 million viewers tuned in to the second episode of the series, a drop of more than two million viewers and over 50% in the demo, from Sunday's series premiere. This is now the favorite to be the first new series cancelled this season.

NBC's FOOD FIGHTERS closed out its first summer run to decent numbers, getting 4.5 million viewers and placing 2nd in its 8 p.m. time slot. I would not be surprised to see NBC green light a second season of the show.

AMERICA'S GOT TALENT was the most watched show of the night, pulling in just under 10 million viewers. Considering the season finale is just a week away, viewers are not getting excited and tuning in to see who makes the finals.

ABC - 3.6 million viewers, 1.0 rating in A18-49
