The 9 p.m. "Talent" original built on its lead-in from a rebroadcast in the prior hour by 53 percent in 18-49 rating.

· At 8 p.m. ET, an encore telecast of "America's Got Talent" (1.5/5 in 18-49, 5.6 million viewers overall) generated NBC's highest non-sports 18-49 rating in the time period so far this summer. Pending updates, the "Talent" rebroadcast is currently tied for #2 among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in 18-49, matching the rating in that hour of Fox's original "So You Think You Can Dance."

· In total viewers, the 8 p.m. "Talent" encore attracted NBC's biggest overall audience in the slot, excluding sports, since April 4.

· At 10 p.m. ET, an encore telecast of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" (1.3/4 in 18-49, 4.6 million viewers overall) hit the show's summer high in 18-49 (pending updates). In the time period, "SVU" is #1 among ABC, CBS and NBC in adults 18-49 ahead of CBS's "CSI" encore (1.1/3) and ABC's original "NY Med" (1.0/3).
