Sorry for the horrible pun. :-P

NBC took the lead at 9 p.m. with "America's Got Talent," 8.3/14, and the premiere of "The Singing Bee," which posted an 8.0/13 overall and built on its lead-in's 18-49 numbers. The All-Star Game improved to 7.9/13 on FOX. "Big Brother," 4.5/7, was third for CBS, while "Shaq's Big Challenge" earned a 2.9/5 for ABC. The CW held steady with "Veronica Mars."


Of course, it's just the premiere, but for the first time in a while, an overpromoted NBC show (got really tired of NBC's pop-up ads for this show) pulled good numbers, which couldn't be said for "Celebrity Cooking Showdown" or "The REAL Wedding Crashers".

/Also the first time NBC overpromoted a show that I actually enjoyed. :-P

It probably helps that it had America's Got Jerry (man, it just doesn't have the same ring as America's Got Regis) as a lead-in.

Well, tonight's airing *is* a rerun of last night's show, despite what my DVR says, so it looks like they're putting everything on Tuesday night and that juicy "Talent" lead-in.

Someone at another TV message board was even throwing out that "Singing Bee" could end up the week's number one rated show.
