Spotted Ratings, Wednesday 6/8/11

WHAT MATTERS:

• In the first showdown between the talent competition staples (though only one of each of their hours overlapped), it was the Wednesday premiere of America's Got Talent (3.6) beating So You Think You Can Dance (2.8). NBC notes this was the strongest non-finale Wednesday result for Got Talent since 7/5/06 (when Wednesday was its main night). Dance was down three-tenths from last week, while Got Talent's first Wednesday ep was down a tenth from the Tuesday episode this week.

• With added competition, most of the repeats on ABC and CBS did much worse than last week. The standout remains Modern Family (1.6 average for its two repeats).

Above based on preliminary adults 18-49 ratings unless otherwise noted.
