TV Ratings 5/30/17: World of Dance Starts High, Downward Dog Falls, AGT Returns Huge (UPDATED)

It was a rough night to not be NBC. NBC was on top of the world last night, looking down on the other networks as they all failed to crack a 1.0 against the huge premieres of America's Got Talent and World of Dance. AGT started with a 2.6, steady year to year. At 10, World of Dance was a huge improvement on the premiere of last year's occupant Maya & Marty (which is MIA and is assumed to have been quietly canceled), pulling an impressive 2.4. Less impressive was Downward Dog on ABC, which fell three tenths against the increased competition. Also working against Downward Dog was its decreased lead-out, which likely was also a contributing factor to the show's drop. Also airing on ABC was the actual series finale of Imaginary Mary, which unsurprisingly hit a series low airing between repeats. CBS had solid Bull and NCIS repeats, and another pathetic rating from 48 Hours: NCIS, which was down a tenth with a lower lead-in. Fox aired the season (series?) finale of Prison Break, which had an incredibly impressive two tenth rebound despite a repeat lead-in and the AGT competition. iZombie on the CW once again had a 0.3, though it's less pathetic since its lead-in was an anemic Flash repeat.

Finals Update: America's Got Talent (+0.1) and the Lethal Weapon repeat (+0.1) adjusted up. The series finale of Imaginary Mary (-0.1) adjusted down.
