Tuesday TV Ratings 8/25/26: ABC Dolly Parton Tribute Draws Solid Interest, Jeopardy! Masters Returns Slightly Lower, Kitchen Nightmares and Beat Shazam Dip Further [+ Analysis]

Jeopardy! Masters (0.26) returned in decent shape on ABC, down just 7% from last year's premiere (0.28) in the key demo. But that performance was largely overshadowed by the network's 10 p.m. Dolly Parton tribute (0.29) that posted a higher 18-49 rating than Masters and brought in more total viewers. On NBC, America's Got Talent (0.40, -0.01) was down slightly from last Tuesday, while Password (0.25, +0.02) rose. CBS's Dolly Parton special (0.11) was on the softer side. Over on Fox, Kitchen Nightmares (0.22, -0.02) and Beat Shazam (0.18, -0.01) both dipped. WWE NXT (0.09, -0.05) declined sharply on the CW. Key: (P) = premiere. (R) = repeat.

Friday TV Ratings 8/21/26: Anna Pigeon and WWE SmackDown Rebound, Celebrity Jeopardy! Repeat Tops a Quiet Night on Broadcast, Real Time with Bill Maher Goes Low [+ Analysis]

ABC's Celebrity Jeopardy! rerun (0.21) was the top performer on broadcast on Friday night, but the 20/20 repeat (0.14) that followed dropped markedly from there. NBC aired repeats of America's Got Talent (0.14) and Dateline (0.15). CBS aired drama reruns (0.11/0.15/0.11), while Fox continued with reality (0.12/0.14). Totally Funny Animals (0.03, -0.01) dipped on the CW, and the decline continued for the 9:30 episode (0.02, -0.01). Key: (R) = repeat.
