Top 20 TV Ratings: Emmy Awards Doubled Nearly All Competition Last Week

“Big Brother” a distant second

The 66th annual Emmys easily took the award for top-rated primetime telecast last week.

The show’s 4.2 rating in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic was double that of any other broadcast show except for one : CBS’ “Big Brother” earned a 2.3 last Wednesday, coming in a distant second.

Tuesday’s “America’s Got Talent” pulled in a 2.1, good for third place. Meanwhile, Sunday and Thursday’s “Big Brother” episodes both had a 2.0, tying for fourth place with Fox’s “MasterChef” on Monday.

Rounding out the Top 10 were ABC’s Saturday night college football presentation (1.9), Wednesday’s “AGT” (1.8), “Hotel Hell” (1.6) and a “Modern Family” rerun (1.5).
