FOX 3.7 FOX 9,930,000
CBS 3.1 CBS 9,470,000

CW 0.9 CW 2,300,000

This might be the last week we see FOX beat CBS in total viewers. CBS should now be in sole possesion of the #2 spot in the demo, for the season to date.
Originally posted by Hawk-eye: Thanks dumont. Would you happen to have updated season-to-date numbers? It has to be pretty close at the moment behind FOX.
18-49demo numbers are: FOX (4.3/11), ABC (3.1/8), NBC (3.0/8), CBS (3.0/8), UNI (1.5/4), CW (1.0/3), TEL (0.4/1).
Thanks Obveeus ...I'd expect NBC to be falling back over the next few months. CBS has a chance to move up and battle ABC over the next few weeks, with their schedule coming back a bit earlier and the NCAA Tournement Saturday and next Monday. ABC will probably take the silver for the year once their big three shows comes back But still, it will be a competative race for second to the end. All the while FOX is laughing and NBC is being,well NBC.

Scary to think that FOX barely lead this week even with 2 hours of American Idol.
I think overall, the numbers are still a 'tie' between CBS/NBC due to the rounding.

Its not that shocking,
I mean the only show on fox that could actually compete with cbs is American Idol and even thats show ratings r finelly going down.
And i dont think fox is dumb enough to do to American Idol what the did to Who want to be a Millionair?.
I'm not that surprised. FOX has definate holes in their programming. Friday and Sunday are a wasteland. Nothing is doing well. Bones and House are in repeats. And there is a definate cap to how many viewers game shows can bring in. Their new January/spring shows all performed below expectations. FOX has relied on Idol and there is a limit to how well Idol can prop up the numbers.

Thanks to TravisYanan, I will confirm the news that the final season premiere of Battlestar Galactica will be the April 4 Daily Game entry. My alternatives were a bit less attractive: either a new episode of CBS' Numb3rs (which would've been the fifth crime procedural to be featured since Sunday, March 30) or the return of ABC's Duel.

Hopefully, Pussycat Dolls and Crowned are both gone forever.
...but Reaper isn't a show about super-rich and privileged characters. How will it fit in with the new 90210, How to Teach Filthy Rich Girls, Who Wants to Marry an Heiress, Confessions of a Socialite, and Richie Rich?
