The sixth round of auditions proved to be a fan favorite Tuesday night as NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” was the highest-rating and most-watched primetime offering across all of broadcast television. The long-running reality competition series notched a healthy 0.73 rating in the advertiser-coveted 18-to-49 demographic and 6.4 million total viewers.

At 8 p.m., “FBI” notched 3.4 million total viewers as the second most-watched primetime broadcast of the night. Overall, CBS garnered 3.1
