NBC’s World of Dance drew 8.5 million total viewers this Tuesday and had a 1.9 demo rating, slipping 12 and 21 percent from its well-watched premiere.
That said, NBC notes that the freshman dance competition delivered the highest-rated Week 2 for any new summer series since CBS’ Under the Dome circa 2013.
Opening the Peacock’s night, America’s Got Talent (12.2 mil/2.6) was steady versus its season opener. Elsewhere: ABC’s Downward Dog (3.6 mil/0.7) and CBS’ 48 Hours: NCIS (4.8 mil/0.5) were both steady, while The CW’s iZombie (1.18 mil/0.4) — pending certain adjustment due to MLB preemption — is currently up.
