NBC's Love in the Wild tied its series low set last week, 1.2, the same score earned by ABC's NY Med in its series premiere. America's Got Talent bounced back half a point from last week's series low. Baseball's All-Star Game was the top-rated show of the night.

Asterisks of the Day

FX's "Anger Management" (1.3/4, 3.37m) dropped off about 40% from its strong premiere but was the top scripted basic-cable program of the week in 18-49.

Next week, Kissell'll have to throw "sitcom" or "comedy" in there.
