NCIS on CBS topped the non-sports shows with a 3.9.

Tonight's rating battle includes: Survivor, The X Factor, Modern Family, CSI and baseball playoffs. Will The X Factor remain steady?

From TVbytheNumbers:

ABC's series premiere of Last Man Standing drew a 3.5 adults 18-49 rating. That was 9% better than the 3.2 adults 18-49 rating for the series premiere of No Ordinary Family in the same timeslot last fall (which was 2 weeks earlier in the season). Our polled readers turned out to be overly pessimistic. I await the nonsense comparisons by someone in the TV media to Home Improvement ratings from long ago. Body Of Proof fell a tenth (5%) from last week to a 1.9 adults 18-49 rating. The Dancing with the Stars results show rose 10% from last week to a 3.2 adults 18-49 rating.
