Super Tuesday was less than stellar for those devoting airtime to it. All eyes were focused on that other contest unfolding on FOX.
8pm

- American Idol (27.8 million, 11.2/28 in 18-49) was only off 300,000 from last week.
- An NCIS* repeat (8.9 million, 1.8/4) also fared well on the news-filled evening.
- The Biggest Loser (8 million, 3.1/8) trimmed off 300,000.
- ABC‘s Super Tuesday coverage averaged 5.3 million (1.4/3) for the whole night.
- Reaper* (1.9 million, 0.7/2) had a repeat performance.
