CBS’ Big Brother still has some ratings muscle, returning on Wednesday night to 6.6 million total viewers and a 2.3 rating — adding a few eyeballs plus a tenth in the demo versus its year-ago Aaryn Nation premiere and leading the night on both counts.
Wednesday’s other premiere, NBC’s Taxi Brooklyn, drew 5.4 mil and a 1.0 leading out of an AGT rerun (6.2 mil/1.3), topping the 10 o’clock hour though falling shy of Camp‘s debut rating in the time slot last July (5.2 mil/1.5).
