Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 6/24/14 & 7/1/14

WHAT MATTERS:

• NBC had to air an America's Got Talent repeat (1.9) on 6/24 so they could throw the original at the Rising Star premiere. The Tuesday original return on 7/1 (2.6) was even with the previous Tuesday original two weeks ago. The Night Shift (1.2) dipped by a tenth after the still strong Got Talent repeat on 6/24, which was apparently enough of a hold to score it a renewal. It then bounced back by two tenths on 7/1 (1.4).

• A couple more 0.2's were enough to get the CW's Famous in 12 the axe. Arrow repeats fill in next week.

• On cable, FX's Tyrant (0.61/0.53) had a soft start, going about 25% behind the already modest Fargo debut from a couple months ago. Even with a reasonable 13% drop in week two, it remained well behind the Fargo pace. And it's been even worse than usual in the early summer for USA's Covert Affairs (0.41/0.34), which opened at 34% behind the previous summer premiere and shed another 17% of that audience in week two. (That put it 59% behind week two of last summer!)
