Wednesday Ratings: Country Experiencing Obama Fatigue
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, American Idol, Lost, Ratings,
Looks like President Obama wasn’t what viewers had in mind for sweeps. Last night’s umpteenth press conference was seen by 29% less people than the March 24th version. Although FOX was able to beat the other networks for its airing of Lie to Me, the strategic move was probably a moot point. American Idol would have given the network a win anyway.
8pm
- Lie to Me (7.9 million, 2.4/7 in 18-49) did the same as last week.
- NBC’s coverage of the presser (1.6/5) drew in 6.7 million.
- ABC’s political hour (1.6/5) attracted 6.1 million.
- Approximately 6 million watched the president on CBS (1.5/5).
- America’s Next Top Model (4 million, 1.8/6) remained steady.

The closer Top Model gets to its finale, the bigger the curiosity factor grows. Cycle 12’s audience improved from last week’s numbers and even beat ABC’s 8:00 demos.
8pm
- Lie to Me (7.9 million, 2.3/7 in 18-49) didn’t do as well as last week’s Bones.
- Law & Order* (5.7 million, 1.2/4) did about the same.

Tuesday Ratings: DWTS Can’t Help The Unusuals
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, American Idol, Dancing With The Stars, Ratings,
ABC, apparently not feeling the love from Cupid, decided to try out another struggling series last night. Unfortunately, The Unusuals failed to deliver as well. Although the the program did just as well as it did last Wednesday, it didn’t improve despite a better lead-in.
8pm
- American Idol (8.0/22 in 18-49) had 23.2 million doing the Hustle.
- The Biggest Loser: Couples (9.3 million, 3.8/10) gained 200,000.

MONDAY 4/20)
- Dhani Tackles the Globe (Travel, 9pm): “The host attempts the Gaelic sport of hurling in Ireland.” Despite what you might believe, drinking is not involved in hurling. At least, not in in this case.
- Table for 12 (TLC, 9pm): “Eric and Betty take the entire brood to the dentist.” Betty had been threatening to give them “something to scream about.”
- Ax Men (History, 10pm): “Jimmy finds a once-in-a-lifetime log.” That’s all any mom can hope for. Right after seeing their son get married and welcoming their first grandchild.
- The Hills (MTV, 10pm): “Heidi and a relucant Spencer begin couples therapy.” Spencer had been hoping to meet with Dr. Phil, but he was too busy with the Octo-mom.

Wednesday Ratings: The Unusuals Does the Usual
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, American Idol, Lost, Scrubs, Ratings,
Despite a flurry of promotion for the new series, ABC’s The Unusuals did what most shows do in that time slot: not much of anything. The premiere lost 18% of its lead-in’s audience and made it that much easier for FOX to dominate.
8pm
- Lie to Me (8.4 million, 2.5/8 in 18-49) fell by 600,000.
- The New Adventures of Old Christine (7.3 million, 2.1/7) and Gary Unmarried (7.3 million, 2.2/7) finished with similar numbers.
- Scrubs (4.7 million, 1.8/6) lost 300,00; Better Off Ted (4.2 million, 1.7/5) dropped 500,000.
- America’s Next Top Model (3.7 million, 1.7/5) was down by 200,000.
