Spotted Ratings, Wednesday 7/18/12


WHAT MATTERS:
  • The Wednesday premiere of Big Brother was the first real red flag for the franchise this season, as it dropped three tenths from the Sunday premiere and was down over 20% year-to-year. It was Big Brother's lowest rating since 2009.
  • But the other Wednesday reality is also struggling. So You Think You Can Dance dropped two more tenths. The only broadcaster on the plus side was ABC's Final Witness, which has (excluding the 4th of July ep) ticked up for two straight weeks since the terrible premiere.
  • Cable also had something of a rough Hump Day. ABC Family's Baby Daddy (0.5) took a significant hit after hitting 0.7's in its first three weeks, and reality effort Beverly Hills Nannies (0.3) crashed from last week's 0.6 premiere. TNT's Dallas (0.9) also downticked once again.
