Talent Contests Rule on Wednesday

The penultimate editions of the reality shows "America's Got Talent" on NBC and "So You Think You Can Dance" on Fox posted winning numbers Wednesday night. A 90-minute edition of "Talent" averaged a 6.3 rating and a 10 share between 9:30 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., while "Dance" registered a 6.9/11 from 9:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. The two networks also scored strongly in the earlier hours, with a 90-minute "Last Comic Standing", which began at 8:00 p.m., posting a 5.3/9 for NBC. Fox, meanwhile, nabbed an identical 5.3/9 for a repeat of "House" at 8:00 p.m. At CBS, "Rock Star: Supernova" drew a 4.0/7 at 8:00 p.m., placing third. At 9:00 p.m., a repeat of "Criminal Minds" lifted CBS to a 6.0/9, while a repeat of "CSI:NY" pushed the network to a 6.5/11 in the 10:00 p.m. hour. ABC ran back-to-back episodes of "Primetime: Medical Mysteries," which drew bigger numbers than the several new programs that it ran earlier in the summer. The first half at 9:00 p.m. recorded a 4.1/7, while the second half at 10:00 p.m. wound up with a 5.1/9.
