Whose brilliant idea was it to have WMC directly face L&0: SVU? They both share the same audience. Did CW take over ABC's programming for a day?

NHL Playoffs on VS.....PITTSBURGH at NEW YORK

L&O SVU.....10pm NBC

Ratings Watch: Special airings for Shark and Women's Murder Club. Shark gets the NCIS lead in and has no competition from House, but may still very well struggle to get the 18-49 results that will improve its chances for renewal. Some have said the WMC airings are a burn-off but I don't see that. ABC could have easily let the non-owned show die this winter when it was out of eps and had declined some. But it runs into bad luck tonite with a high profile SVU ep and a rerun of CSI for competition.

Tuesday 4.29.08:
CW: 8:00pm Beauty and the Geek - nearing the finale.
NBC: 8:30pm Saturday Night Live (R) - The Very Best of Mr. Alec Baldwin
CW: 9:00pm Reaper - last week was right on the mark; hoping for a renewal.
