In series premiere news, competition series “The Ultimate Surfer” was left at the starting gate on ABC with a mere 1.46 million viewers (#3) and a 0.3 rating in adults 18-49 (#2) at 10 p.m. ET. First in the time period was NBC game show “The Wall” at 2.70 million viewers and a 0.4 in the demo. And its lead-in, “Bachelor in Paradise”, was considerable stronger at 3.21 million viewers (#2) and a 0.9 in adults 18-49 (#1 for the night) in the Monday 8-10 p.m. block. Consider the debut of “The Ultimate Surfer” a wipeout.

Opposite “Bachelor in Paradise” was NBC’s diluted “American Ninja Warrior” at 3.27 million viewers (#10 and a 0.4 in the demo (#2t).

Elsewhere, Fox featured the pairing of veteran “Hell’s Kitchen” (Viewers: #4, 2.44 million; A18-49: #2, 0.6 at 8 p.m.) and animated comedies “Housebroken” (Viewers: #4, 951,000; A18-49: #3t, 0.2 at 9 p.m.) and “Duncanville” (Viewers: #4, 704,000; A18-49: 0.2 (#t). The CW barely registered, as usual, care of its pairing of “Roswell, New Mexico” (Viewers: 654,000; A18-49: 0.1) and “The Republic of Sarah” (Viewers: 338,000; A18-49: 0). Both dramas, of course, finished last in their time periods. And CBS was in all repeats.
