"America's Got Talent" Generated the #1 Non-Sports 18-49 and Total-Viewer Results of the Night
NBC spins the numbers for Tuesday, June 12.

[via press release from NBC]

Tuesday Results:

&middt; At 9p.m. ET, "America's Got Talent" (3.0/8 in 18-49, 10.8 million viewers overall) generated the #1 non-sports 18-49 and total-viewer results of the night on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox, and the broad-based hit is #1 non-sports in the time period among those networks in all key ratings categories - adults, men and women 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54, plus total viewers - as well as teens 12-17 and kids 2-11.

&middt; From 10-11 p.m. ET, "Love in the Wild" (1.6/4 in 18-49, 5.0 million viewers overall) ranked #2 among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in adults 18-49, total viewers and all other key categories behind only ABC's NBA Finals. Despite that high-rated NBA competition, "Love in the Wild" is currently matching last week's season-premiere 1.6 rating in 18-49 and growing week to week by 12 percent in total viewers (5.024 million vs. 4.760 million), pending updates. Against the NBA competition, "Love in the Wild" matched its highest 18-49 rating since July 6, 2011 and delivered its biggest overall audience since July 27, 2011, pending updates.

&middt; Versus the average of its final three telecasts last summer, last night's "Love in the Wild" is currently up 14 percent in 18-49 rating (1.6 vs. 1.4) and up 10 percent in total viewers (5.024 million vs. 4.574 million).

&middt; At 8 p.m. ET, a special Tuesday telecast of "American Ninja Warrior" (1.6/5 in 18-49, 4.9 million viewers overall) grew substantially from half-hour to half-hour in all key categories, including gains of 20 percent in adults 18-49 (to a 1.8 fro a 1.5), 44 percent in men 18-34 (1.3 vs. 0.9) and 14 percent in total viewers (5.3 million vs. 4.6 million), in a highly competitive time period opposite ABC's pre-game NBA Finals coverage (and game coverage in the Western U.S.), Fox's "Hell's Kitchen" and CBS's "NCIS" encore. Note that "American Ninja Warrior" was moved to Tuesday this week in a late schedule switch to accommodate coverage of Monday's Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final.

In Late-Night Metered Markets Tuesday night:

&middt; In Nielsen's 56 metered markets, household results were: "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," 2.5/6; CBS's "Late Show with David Letterman," 2.4/6; and ABC's combo of "Nightline," (delayed by NBA Basketball); and "Jimmy Kimmel Live," (delayed by NBA Basketball).

&middt; In the 25 markets with Local People Meters, adult 18-49 results were: "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," 0.7/3; "Late Show," 0.6/3; "Nightline," (delayed by NBA Basketball); and "Jimmy Kimmel Live," (delayed by NBA Basketball).

&middt; At 12:35 a.m., "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" (1.2/4 in metered-market households) tied CBS's "Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" (1.2/4). In the 25 markets with Local People Meters, "Late Night" (0.5/3 in 18-49) topped "Late Late Show" (0.4/2).

&middt; At 1:35 a.m., "Last Call with Carson Daly" averaged a 0.7/3 in metered-market households with an encore and a 0.3/2 in adults 18-49 in the 25 markets with local people meters.
