I have a feeling after last night’s great numbers, we’ll still be seeing Linus sitting in that pumpkin patch next year. Although FOX’s Tuesday lineup had the best demos, the classic Halloween special helped ABC attract the largest audience.
8pm
- Although it was slightly down from last week, NCIS (16.3 million, 3.3/9 in 18-49 demo) had the hour’s largest audience.

- It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (11.4 million, 3.8/11) easily outperformed the usual Cavemen/Carpoolers numbers.
- Bones (8.9 million, 3.2/9) took a backseat to Snoopy.
- The Biggest Loser (6.3 million, 2.8/7) and The Singing Bee (5.8 million, 1.7/5) both declined from last week.
- Beauty and the Geek (2.3 million, 1.1/3) was down almost a million.
9pm
- At 18.8 million, Dancing With The Stars (4.3/10 in 18-49 demo) had the hour’s largest audience.
- House (17.2 million, 7.0/17) still outperformed in the demos.
- The Unit (2.8/7) came in third with 8.1 million viewers.
- CW’s Reaper (2.5 million, 1.1/3) was about even with last week.
10pm
- Thanks to a repeat on NBC, Boston Legal (11.2 million, 3.0/8 in 18-49 demo) had the hour’s best audience.
- A repeat of Law and Order: SVU (8.7 million, 3.0/8) still came in second.
- Surprisingly, Cane (8.1 million, 2.0/5) held on steady from last Tuesday.
