* MTV’s “Jersey Shore” has tied with HBO’s “True Blood” in 18-49 for two weeks running, and for two weeks running beat “True Blood” in terms of total viewers (5.504 million vs. 4.996 million last week; 5.820m vs. 5.394m this week). “Blood” matched its all-time high this week; “Jersey” hit a new all-time high. * After NBC football, NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” remains America’s top show, hitting its best number in seven weeks. * All three hours of “Big Brother,” CBS’ biggest summer hit, rose to season highs this week; they also took up three spots in the 18-49 demo’s top ten this week in the run-up to Thursday's big double-eviction show. * Sunday’s “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” return didn’t mark an all-time high for the E! show (it previously hit a 2.7), but it came dang close. And pretty dang close to cracking the week’s top 10. * “Kardashians” was edged out of the top 10 by this week’s top scripted show, a repeat of CBS’ “Big Bang Theory.” * Top scripted cable show this week was USA’s “Burn Notice,” which matched its season high with its season finale. * “Wipeout” and “Bachelor Pad” were ABC’s two shows in the twos this week. * A repeat of “Family Guy” was Fox’s top show, followed by “MasterChef.”
