TV Ratings: ‘The Voice’ and ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Rise, ‘Splash’ and ‘Ready for Love’ Drop

The Voice extended its Monday dominance into Tuesday, rising a tenth of a point from last week's hour-long format for a 4.5 rating with adults 18-49. That did little for Ready for Love, however. The dating competition dropped two tenths of a point from its weak premiere to a 1.3 rating with adults 18-49. Still, NBC easily won the night in the key demo with an average 2.4 rating. The network also averaged 6.8 million viewers.

Front-loading the night with encores didn't hurt CBS. The network topped Tuesday in total viewers (9.8 million) and tied Fox and ABC among adults 18-49 with a 1.5 rating. The network had repeats of NCIS, NCIS: LA and an even original of Golden Boy (1.5 adults).

On Fox, Hell's Kitchen (1.9 adults) held last week's score in the key demo. Encores of New Girl and The Mindy Project finished up the night, giving the network a 1.5 adults rating and 3.4 million viewers.
