TNT's pivotal Game 5 of the Western Conference finals topped all TV attractions Monday, with the Thunder holding off the Spurs to take a 3-2 lead.
The game peaked at 372,576 D-FW viewers in the closing minutes while averaging 277,738 overall. OKC-San Antonio also ran first in its time slot among advertiser-prized 18-to-49-year-olds.
Before the game's 8 p.m. start, Fox and NBC split the 7 p.m. proceeds, with the Peacock's America's Got Talent winning in total viewers while the summer season premiere of Hell's Kitchen had the edge with 18-to-49-year-olds.
The Texas Rangers' late-starting 12-1 pounding by the Oakland A's averaged a substandard 128,708 viewers after reaching a high point of 257,416 between 9:30 and 9:45 p.m.
Fox4 had a big day in the local news derby results, running first at 6 a.m. and 5, 6 and 10 p.m. among 25-to-54-year-olds (the main advertiser target audience for news programming).
The station also won at 5 p.m. in total viewers and tied for first at 6 a.m. in that measurement with NBC5.
Monday's other total viewer golds went to WFAA8 at 6 p.m. and CBS11 at 10 p.m.
