Wednesday Ratings: ‘Big Brother’ #BB24 on CBS Reaches Season High in Adults 18-49

© by CBS

CBS and NBC shared Wednesday night honors.

CBS won among adults 18-49. Summer staple “Big Brother” continues to pick up steam within its 24th season, reaching a new season-high mark in the key demographic. Its lead-out “The Challenge: USA” has delivered steady figures since its July 6th premiere.

NBC was tops in total viewers, thanks to the results edition of “America’s Got Talent”, the night’s most-watched telecast. The network also offered a sampling of its Peacock streaming dark comedy “The Resort” at 9 p.m. Its retention from the “AGT” was less than half in both key figures (viewers and demo), but note that it had originally premiered on Peacock in late July.
