On NBC, the season premiere of America’s Got Talent earned a 3.6 adults 18-49 rating, compared to a 3.8 in the time period for the finale of The Voice last week and a 4.3 for last year’s season premiere on June 2, 2011. The season finale of Smash scored a 1.8 among adults 18-49, matching its performance for the prior two weeks.
The premier of America’s Got Talent rated lower than it’s premiere last year, despite the presence of new judge, Howard Stern. It’s worth noting that the competition is stiffer than it was when the show premiered with The Voice as a lead in.
