Private Eyes is pulling in viewers as it approaches its series finale, according to Numeris data for the week of Aug. 16 to 22, but the summer’s big reality competition shows are hot on its heels.
The penultimate episode of Global’s comedy-drama brought in 1.119 million viewers nationally. However, it was only slightly ahead of the Tuesday broadcast of America’s Got Talent, at 1.113 million viewers, with the second new episode on Wednesday pulling in just under 1 million, good for fourth. Big Brother took the number three spot, slipping slightly following weeks of being a top performer.
Market-by-market, while Private Eyes topped the ratings in Calgary, one of the two AGT episodes was at the top of every other English-speaking city.
In Quebec, cooking show Fous du bbq jumped to the top of the Francophone ratings, followed by consistently strong performer S.W.A.T.
