Fox's Hell's Kitchen heated up the prime-time D-FW ratings Monday on a night when only CBS offered an alternative to unscripted reality programming. Then again, it was mostly only comedy repeats.
A new 8 p.m. episode of Kitchen, which followed a rerun, cooked as prime-time's runaway top draw among advertiser-favored 18-to-49-year-olds. Still, it's first half-hour fell short of CBS' Two and a Half Men encore in the total homes Nielsens.
A new episode of CBS' critically praised Creature Comforts took no comfort in finishing fourth in both homes and with 18-to-49-year-olds. ABC's new Ex-Wives Club also was rejected again, burrowing a ratings valley between episodes of the network's Wife Swap and Supernanny.
In the local news derby, NBC5 and Belo8 tied at 10 p.m. in total homes, but the Peacock won easily among 25-to-54-year-olds, the main advertiser target audience for news programming.
NBC5 also won in homes at 6 a.m., with Fox4 logging a comfortable win in the 25-to-54 demo.
Belo8 continued to dominate at 5 and 6 p.m., winning across the board.
