TV ratings: 'So You Think You Can Dance' gives FOX a Wednesday win, 'AGT' results soft

Fast National ratings for Wednesday, July 11, 2012

"So You Think You Can Dance" carried FOX to a ratings victory in both total viewers and adults 18-49 on Wednesday, although none of the networks had much to crow about. "America's Got Talent" scored its lowest ratings of the season with its results show.

FOX averaged 5.7 million viewers and a 3.4 rating/6 share in households to score a narrow viewer win over NBC (5.45 million, 3.4/6). CBS wasn't far behind either, drawing 5.1 million viewers and a 3.4/6. ABC (3.9 million, 2.6/4) came in fourth, and The CW (711,000, 0.5/1) trailed.

None of the broadcast nets reached a 2.0 rating among adults 18-49, with FOX (1.9) coming the closest. NBC finished second with a 1.4. ABC's 1.1 was good enough for third, followed by CBS, 1.0, and The CW, 0.3.
