More Summer Matchups: Thursday | Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday
| Net | 8:00 | 8:30 | Premieres | Average |
| ABC | Last Man Standing (R) | |||
| CBS | NCIS (R) | |||
| NBC | America's Got Talent (R) | |||
| Fox | Hell's Kitchen | 6/5 | 2.64 | |
| CW | THE CATALINA | 5/29 | NEW | |
| ABC Fam | Pretty Little Liars | 6/5 | 0.97 | |
With just two original hours on a ten-hour schedule, I'm sure the CW has some good reason for throwing one of those hours up against what will likely be ABC Family's biggest hour of the whole week. I'm just not sure what it is...
| Net | 9:00 | 9:30 | Premieres | Average |
| ABC | TRUST US WITH YOUR LIFE | 7/10 | NEW | |
| CBS | NCIS: Los Angeles (R) | |||
| NBC | America's Got Talent | ongoing | 3.37 to date | |
| Fox | Masterchef | 6/5 | 2.23 | |
| CW | The LA Complex (R) | |||
| Discovery | Deadliest Catch | ongoing | 1.30 to date | |
| TNT | Rizzoli & Isles | 6/5 | 1.23 | |
| USA | White Collar | 7/10 | 1.22 | |
| ABC Fam | Jane By Design | 6/5 | 0.49 | |
Based on the way it premiered back in 2010, TNT could've hoped that Rizzoli & Isles would become its next huge Closer-at-its-peak-sized hit. That hasn't really materialized, but it's still done legitimately well enough to not only anchor Tuesday but also be its network's first premiere of an original-heavy summer.
| Net | 10:00 | 10:30 | Premieres | Average |
| ABC | NY MED | 7/10 | NEW | |
| CBS | 48 Hours Mystery (R) | |||
| NBC | Love in the Wild | 6/5 | 1.63 | |
| MTV | Teen Mom | 6/12 | 1.92 | |
| A&E | Storage Wars | 6/5 | 1.89 | |
| Comedy | Tosh.0 | Workaholics | 5/29 | 1.63 | 1.13 |
| USA | Covert Affairs | 7/10 | 1.23 | |
| TNT | Franklin & Bash | 6/5 | 0.85 | |
| TV Land | Retired at 35 | repeats | 6/26 | 0.33 |
This looks like a pretty close race among several different parties. The one thing we can say for sure is that the slot's winner will be an unscripted program. EDIT: Thanks to SitcomsOnline for the info on ABC's shuffle, as their newest installment in the medical documentary genre NY Med gets the Tuesday slot and previously scheduled Final Witness goes to Wednesday.

There are two reasons that I could think of for The CW picking Tuesday to air a new show:
1. The only original programming on the Big Four is Fox's Hell's Kitchen, so there's "less competition." Monday has AGT, The Bachelorette, and Gordon Ramsey Night while Wednesday will have Big Brother, and SYTYCD.
2. Tuesday is a more valuable night for advertiser money (for example: summer movies that are opening on a Wednesday).
And The CW still has Oh, Sit! and The Star Next Door to premiere too, though I'd bet that these shows take over the slots of The Catalina and Breaking Pointe.
