... wow are those OTH number not up to par...

Way to blow your lead-in, OTH ...

YAY for CBS on the 14mill for Price Is Right! Also, are America's Next Top Model's numbers usually a million higher on season finalies?

I thought OTH would do really well.

Horrible One Tree Hill ratings! I bet Idol had something to do with that!

Yep

FOX Maintains 0.5 A18-49 Lead After Three Full Weeks of the May Sweep:

2007 A18-49 vs first 21 nights 2006 A18-49
(results weighted for extra hour on Sundays)

1. FOX 3.9 vs 4.5 (-13%)
2. ABC 3.4 vs 3.3 (+3%)
3. CBS 3.2 vs 3.8 (-16%)
4. NBC 2.4 vs 3.2 (-25%)
5. CW 1.3 vs. 1.2 (+8% to The WB)
6. MNT 0.4 vs 1.2 (-67% from UPN, first 20 nights only)
TOTAL 6 NETS: 14.5 vs. 17.1 (-15%)

2007 Households vs first 21 nights 2006 Households
(results weighted for extra hour on Sundays)

1. CBS 7.3 vs 8.2 (-11%)
2. ABC 6.6 vs 5.7 (+16%)
3. FOX 6.2 vs 6.7 (-7%)
4. NBC 4.7 vs 6.3 (-25%)

6. MNT 0.6 vs 1.9 (-68% from UPN; first 20 nights only)

American Idol helped FOX to solidify its hold on first place, and the News Corporation net now leads ABC by 0.5 in A18-49 after three full weeks of the May Sweep. In households, CBS continues to hold a 0.7HH lead over ABC.

ABC and The CW are the only two broadcast networks to show year-over-year improvement in both A18-49 and Households after three full weeks of the May Sweep.

Thank goodness One Tree Hill is repeats against the American Idol Part 2 Finale!

People still gonna whine about how unfair it is that OTH isn't on the fall schedule?

The CW is so screwed next week with VM and OTH flying solo. And poor Hidden Palms, being saddled with OTH as a lead-in.

Hidden Palms is the lead-in for One Tree Hill.

CW had 2 options: air OTH begining on fall 2007 or cancel it. Airing it midseason is stupid.

Is LOST up from last week?

Well, Marc, you got your wish last night on AI - as "Teacher's Pet" Melinda got eliminated.

One of the best singers of the last few seasons of the show is now gone...

I think next week's finale will be the weakest-rated since the summer finale of season 1 (Kelly Clarkson). Sure, it will still be big - but if you gauge reaction on several other websites, people are livid... and are planning not to watch next week.

Which can hopefully only mean good things for 'Lost'... which has been at the top of its game for several weeks now. Nice to see the ratings nudge up from last week.. hopefully they'll increase even more after finals.

Most the CW shows that are coming back only get 2 or 3 millon per week. If the CW shows were on ABC etc it would be gone in a week or 2.
