Ratings Analysis: ABC's 'The Bachelorette' (0.75, +0.03) grew by three-hundredths and topped the night with ease. 'Claim To Fame' (0.34, -0.05) was not nearly as lucky as its lead-in and slipped to a new series low at 10. Fox series 'Don't Forget the Lyrics!' (0.29, +0.02) experienced a much-needed uptick after dealing with some slippage last week. 'Beat Shazam' (0.31, -0.05) went in the opposite direction and tied its season low, losing a whopping five-hundredths altogether. On NBC, 'American Ninja Warrior' (0.37, 0.00) was steady, but the rerun of 'Weakest Link' (0.28) was two-hundredths shy of the one from the week prior. CW dramas 'Roswell, New Mexico' (0.05, +0.01) and 'In the Dark' (0.04, +0.01) picked up a hundredth apiece. CBS had repeats of 'The Neighborhood' (0.34), 'Bob Hearts Abishola' (0.28), 'NCIS' (0.25), and 'NCIS: Hawai'i' (0.24). As evident by the numbers, fewer people tuned in as the night went on.
