#1s for the Week:
It is hard to beat NBC in the summer, with AMERICA'S GOT TALENT on two nights a week, It is even tougher when you add in a Sunday Night Football preseason game. NBC was far above the other networks, in all categories, taking the top two spots with AGT and two more in the top seven, with SNF.
The NFL helped FOX pass CBS and ABC for second, as the Thursday night game ranked 5th on the week, and the pre game 18th. FOX also had a little NFL help on Sunday night, with an overrun game supplying a good lead in for the comedy encores, ranking 30th.
CBS edged out ABC for third on the strength of its regular summer programming. BIG BROTHER pushed three nights into the top 11, plus a special CARPOOL KARAOKE ranked 23rd.CBS had two NFL games, on Friday and Saturday nights, but had little impact on the overall numbers.
ABC pushed eight programs into the top 30, with CELEBRITY FAMILY FEUD leading the charge at the #6 position.
The CW took 12 of the bottom 16 spots.
