Big Brother won Thursday night, while both NY Med and Last Comic Standing closed out their respective seasons on a high note.
CBS topped the major networks with a 1.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 5.48 million viewers. After Big Bang Theory and Mom encores, Big Brother drew a steady 2.2 rating, HitFix reports.
NBC followed in second with a 1.3 rating in the demo and 4.51 million viewers. Last Comic Standing was no ratings juggernaut in its revival, but it was steady in its return for the network and closed out up to a 1.4 demo rating.
In third for the night was ABC with a 0.9 rating in the 18-49 demo and 4.45 million viewers. According to The Hollywood Reporter, The Quest held even last week with a low 0.6 rating, while Rookie Blue drew a 1.0 rating, which is slightly up. NY Med closed out its second season up slightly to a 0.9 rating, which is in line with last year's finale.
Fox was a distant fourth on the night with a 0.6 rating in the advertiser important demo and 2.04 million viewers. Freshman series Gang Related finished out its first, and possibly only, season run with a 0.7 rating, seeing no boost as it wrapped up.
