On NBC, The Voice (0.36) cooled down, and America's Got Talent (0.33) closed out its season respectably. Fox's 99 to Beat (0.20) was at the lower-end of its season one delivery in its return. Key: (P) = premiere. (R) = repeat. (F) = finale.

On ABC, Dancing with the Stars (1.35) remained at a towering height, but RJ Decker (0.23) was a diminutive companion. The Voice (0.41) and America's Got Talent (0.33) were both solid on NBC. CBS special Judge Judy: Unfiltered, Unforgettable (0.14) was only a few ticks above the CW's WWE NXT (0.09). Key: (P) = premiere. (R) = repeat.
