Heading down another homestretch, summertime’s most potent TV attraction notched two more wins Tuesday night.

NBC’s America’s Got Talent led all prime-time attractions in both total D-FW viewers (288,201) and with advertiser-coveted 18-to-49-year-olds (66,422).

The runner-ups were Fox4’s 9 p.m. local newscast in total viewers (175,733) and ABC’s Bachelor In Paradise among 18-to-49ers (54,346).

Here are Tuesday’s local news derby results.

WFAA8 led in total viewers at 10 p.m. and Fox4 had the edge with 25-to-54-year-olds (main advertiser target audience for news programming).

Fox4 swept the 6 a.m. competitions and added 5 and 6 p.m. wins in the 25-to-54-year-old age range. The 5 and 6 p.m. winners in total viewers respectively were NBC5 and WFAA8.

For the seventh straight weekday, NBC5 ran second at 6 a.m. in both ratings measurements, with slumping WFAA8 again falling to third.
