Spotted Ratings, Wednesday 8/14/19

FINALS UPDATE: Big Brother (1.1) and BH90210 (1.0) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• BH90210's run as a sensation was short-lived, as it took a whooping 40% week two drop to a 0.9 in week two. It barely edged its MasterChef lead-in (0.8) in adults 18-49, and again went well behind it in adults 18-34 (0.3 vs. 0.5).

• America's Got Talent (1.1) began its Wednesday run, down around 25% from the 1.5 with which it opened on Wednesday last year (similar to its Tuesday declines this season). It led into the original return of Songland (0.7) at 9/8c, but The InBetween (0.4) couldn't benefit at 10/9c.
  

• Elsewhere, Big Brother (1.0) was down a notch in a move to the 8/7c hour, while Card Sharks (0.5) and Match Game (0.5) finished their runs even with last week.
