Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 7/24/12

WHAT MATTERS:

• ABC's Trust Us With Your Life got crushed after ABC took away its Wipeout lead-in (a 1.4 last week). The net is supposed to finish the run with one original each of the next two weeks, and they may go through with that since the Olympics are comin'. In a different world I'd (at best) throw on both next week and be done with it.

• Hopes for a summer breakout from The LA Complex were dashed, and Hart of Dixie dropped from 0.4 to 0.2.

• Cable's USA vs. TNT wars saw each network win one hour decisively. Rizzoli & Isles (1.2) crushed a season-low White Collar (0.9), but USA bounced back at 10/9c with a season-high Covert Affairs (1.0) beating Franklin & Bash (0.7).
