Ratings Breakdown:
ABC’s veteran “The Bachelorette” topped the evening with a healthy 4.5 rating/8 share in the household overnights from 8-10 p.m. ET. Comparably, that bested competing “American Ninja Warrior” on NBC (#2: 3.0/ 5) by 50 percent and it was seven percent above the year-ago telecast. At this point, “The Bachelor”/”The Bachelorette” franchise can last for years (if not decades) into the future.
Despite the lead-in support, ABC summer “Grand Hotel” did not live up to its title with a 2.3/ 4 in households in the 10 p.m. hour. Comparable that trailed NBC’s “Dateline” and a repeat of “Bull” on CBS (each with a 2.9/ 5) by 21 percent.
Elsewhere, Fox’s combination of sophomore game show “Beat Shazam” (#4L 2.0/ 4 at 8 p.m.) and veteran “So You Think You Can Dance” (#4: 1.9/ 3 at 9 p.m.) were at typical overnight levels. Canceled CBS drama “The Code” scored a third-place 3.0/ 5 at 9 p.m. (which is not that much lower than former Monday 9 p.m. time period occupant “ Magnum, P.I.”). And The CW fared as follows:
