The latest season’s final “performance” show put NBC’s America’s Got Talent firmly in charge of Tuesday’s prime-time Nielsens.

Airing from 7 to 9 p.m., AGT drew 254,489 D-FW viewers while also ranking as the night’s biggest attraction among advertiser-prized 18-to-49-year-olds (70,556).

Fox4’s local newscast, which is finishing off a very strong summer, then took over by comfortably winning at 9 p.m. in both total viewers (181,778) and with 18-to-49-year-olds (48,107).

Here are Tuesday’s four-way local news derby results.

TEGNA8 made its strongest across-the-board showing in a good long while, winning at 5, 6 and 10 p.m. in total viewers and among 25-to-54-year-olds (main advertiser target audience for news programming).

Fox4 again ran the table at 6 a.m.
