NBC as usual rode two hours of America’s Got Talent to the ratings promised land Tuesday night before adding a victory lap with the slap-happy Better Late Than Never.

AGT drew 290,378 D-FW viewers for its semi-final round and also won among advertiser-prized 18-to-49-year-olds with 85,744. Better Late Than Never, with William Shatner, Henry Winkler, George Foreman and Terry Bradshaw continuing to cavort through Asia, then took the 9 p.m. hour with respective totals of 212,472 and 57,163 viewers.

Over on Fox Sports Southwest, the first-place Texas Rangers’ late night win at Seattle limped in with 120,401 total viewers.

Here are Tuesday’s local news derby results.

CBS11 continued to suddenly flex at 10 p.m. by tying NBC5 for first in total viewers and winning outright among 25-to-54-year-olds (main advertiser target audience for news programming).

The golds were split at 6 a.m. between Fox4 in total viewers and the Peacock with 25-to-54-year-olds.

NBC5 swept the 6 p.m. competitions and added a 25-to-54 win at 5 p.m. The station tied TEGNA8 for the most total viewers at 5 p.m.
