Zooey Deschanel

There were a lot of moves on television last night and not just the five finales on Tuesday’s primetime. So You Think You Can Dance (1.9/6) was back for a tenth season with a first time May sweep debut. Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy were joined by guest judge Jesse Tyler Ferguson of Modern Family as LA hopefuls auditioned and angled for that ticket to Las Vegas. The premiere stumbled 14% from last season’s debut on April 24, 2012 but was up 19% from Season 9’s finale on September 18, 2012. The other dance show of the night, ABC’s Dancing With The Stars (1.8/5) was up 6% on its results show from last week and the third most watched show of the night with 11.59 million viewers.  Back on Fox, the season finales of comedies The New Girl (2.1/6) and The Mindy Project (1.3/4) followed. The second season ender of the Zooey Deschanel starrer was even with its May 7 show. The freshman finale of Mindy was also even with last week’s show. Over on ABC and moved to Tuesday, Wipeout (1.1/4) had the second week of its latest season fall 15% from its May 9 premiere and to tie a series low. On at 10 PM, Body of Proof (1.4/4) was even with last week’s show.
