Gordon Ramsay won the night for FOX. America's Got Talent was the top show of the night, despite being down substantially from last week. Its 2.3 is three tenths worse than its previous series-low. Hell's Kitchen also fell to a new series low, and MasterChef tied its series low. Love in the Wild also posted a series low.

Next Tuesday, NBC will put up two hours of AGT against the All-Star Game on FOX.
