FOX Wins Monday but ABC’s ‘The Bachelorette’ was the #1 program.
FOX
The Animal Network of Broadcast opened the week on a winning note with its pairing of ‘MasterChef’ and drew 4.925 million viewers and a 3.7 rating/6 share, and ’24: Live Another Day’ which drew 5.7 million viewers and a 4.5/7, which was equal to one week earlier. ’24’ has certainly ignited early summer interest on FOX. The hefty year-to-year increase for Fox…242%…was a result of horrible sitcom schedule of ‘Raising Hope’, ‘The Goodwin Games’, ‘New Girl’ and ‘Anger Management’ (which originally aired on FX) the year-ago evening. The network should hope and pray to have Jack back next year.
ABC
The Alphabet Network at 8P brought two-hours of ‘The Bachelorette’ and it topped the night with 5.88 million viewers and a 4.6/7 on broadcast but it dipped by 10% from the 5.1/8 one year earlier. At 10P, ‘Mistresses’ finished third with 3.66 million viewers and a 2.6/4. Comparably, ‘Mistresses’ also declined by 10% from the 2.9/5 on the year-ago evening.
NBC
The Peacock Network began the evening at 8P with a rerun of ‘Last Comic Standing’ and it pulled in 3.545 million viewers and a 2.5/4. At 9P, two-hours of ‘American Ninja Warrior’ which rose by 15% week-to-week with 5.45 million viewers and a 3.1/5.
CBS
On the Tiffany Network, airing of reruns made up the majority of the unimaginative scheduling for Monday as at 8P, ‘2 Broke Girls’ managed 4.78 million viewers and a 3.2/5. At 830P, a rerun of ‘Mom’ brought in 4.67 million viewers and a 3.0/5. At 9P, a rerun of ‘Mike & Molly’ brought in 5.47 million viewers and a 3.5/6 to make it the top CBS program of the evening and at 930P, a rerun of ‘Two and a Half Men’ brought in 4.75 million viewers and a 3.1/5. At 10P, clips and a preview special ‘Under The Dome: Inside Chester’s Mill’ drew 4.34 million viewers and a 3.0/5. The second season of ‘Under the Dome’, which returns next week, should be stronger but those teaser numbers don’t fill the schedule with confidence.
The CW
The Little Network That Couldn’t began the evening with two episodes (original and rerun) at 8P of ‘Whose Line is it Anyway?’ and drew 1.64 million viewers and a 1.2/5. At 830P, the rerun drew 1.56 million viewers and a 1.1/2. At 9P, ‘Beauty and the Beast’ drew 794,000 viewers and a 0.7/1.
Late Night
NBC’s ‘The Tonight Show’ had a 2.2/5. CBS’ ‘David Letterman’ had a 1.9/5. ABC’s ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ had a 1.9/5. At 1235A, CBS’s ‘Craig Ferguson’ had a 1.0/3. ABC’s ‘Nightline’ finished with a 1.0.3. At NBC, a rerun of ‘Seth Meyers’ pulled a 0.9/3. NBC’s ‘Carson Daly’ finished the evening at 130A with a 0.6/2.

NBC was #3 with 4.82 million viewers and a 2.9/5. CBS was #4 with 4.73 million viewers and a 3.1/5. Univision had 2.90 million viewers and a 1.4/2.
