As “Big Brother” returned for its latest season, the CBS series also returned to the top of the broadcast Live +7 ratings for the week of June 24.

“Big Brother” earned the week’s top gains in the adults 18-49 demo, as its first three episodes of the new season each grew by 0.8 and 0.7 points, respectively, across 7-days of delayed viewing. “America’s Got Talent,” meanwhile, tied with the Tuesday and Sunday night “Big Brother” episodes for the week’s second-largest 18-49 gain, as it also rose 0.7 points (+44%).

In total viewers, “Elementary” continued its recent dominant streak and posted the week’s highest gain, growing from its initial 3.09 million viewers to a 5.91 million viewer audience (+ 2.82 million, +91%). Once again, “America’s Got Talent” placed second with a 2.58 million viewer gain (+25%).

Here are the broadcast Live +7 rankings for June 24-30, 2019. They include only first-run series and specials, not repeats.
