Ratings: Hell's Kitchen Heats Up Fox's Numbers

Gordon Ramsay

The two-hour finale of Hell's Kitchen led Fox to its first Tuesday-night win of the new season.

Kitchen cooked up an average of 8 million viewers, but was strong enough to eke out a victory for Fox in the coveted adults 18-49 demographic. CBS, meanwhile, pulled in the most viewers overall, with its continually powerful lineup of NCIS (20.4 million viewers), NCIS: Los Angeles (15.3 million viewers) and The Good Wife (12.8 million viewers).

Biggest Loser
averaged 8.9 million viewers over its two hours, but performed better in the demo than ABC's Shark Tank (5.4 million viewers), Dancing with the Stars (13.4 million viewers) and The Forgotten (7.5 million viewers). The Jay Leno Show improved a little to 5.8 million viewers.

On the CW, 90210 and Melrose Place were about average with 2.4 million viewers and 1.4 million viewers, respectively.
