I think Heroes will be the least of 24's problems since Chuck is going to die a slow painful death against House. Dancing is the show that Fox and CBS should be afraid of. it will knock the comedies down 2 million for sure and probably the Fox shows by about 1 million each, if not more.

BBT slowly it's becoming a sleeper hit. 24 slowly it's losing viewers. And it's not even going against Heroes yet
I guess the answer to "who will be most affected by House moving to Mondays at 8pm" was, indeed, Gossip Girl.
House itself did excellently compared to the rest of this season. Close to season premiere demos and, if I'm not mistaken, a couple million more viewers than the premiere?
24, meanwhile, held its audience from last week but didn't seem to gain much from the House lead-in (besides not bleeding viewers... yet).
Glad that BBT and HIMYM help up so well with House in the timeslot. Hopefully when DWTS comes back they will continue to perform so well.
The Bachelor is, surprisingly, doing quite well for itself? Is this perhaps a sign that ABC should show restraint and air it once per season between DWTS cycles (and perhaps a Bachelorette over the summer)?
BBT and HIMYM held very, very strong. For them to lose 700,000 or so viewers and about .3 in the demo from last week's series highs against a mega hit like House shows the strength of these shows. I thought they would go down much more than this. Great showing by these shows against the toughest competition they have ever faced.
If the CW wants to save its "franchise" GG it has to move its time slot. If it continues to face House it is a going to get killed. It clearly lost the most viewers of any show in the time slot to House.
Over at ABC, The Bachelor did very well. TB did well in the demos, but it's viewership was low. Tough one to call. Is it's demos the result of a youth dominated viewership or the fact that it just holds The Bachelor's demos well? SW wedged in between The Bachelor and TB will be the real test.
Over at CBS, the comedies were lower but still good, with the exception of WW. CSIM 3.7/3.8 demo is lower than normal.
FOX got a great rating out of House/24. FOX just needs to keep House on Mondays now instead of moving it around every year. The audience stayed with it through this move.
CW got some really low ratings out of GG/OTH. GG struggling for 2 million viewership is not good.
NBC got low ratings from SOD and MB. Both aren't likely to return to the schedule.

Last night House's F12-17 rating was a 2.0/5 while GG's was a 2.3/6. I don't get F12-17 for cable finals, so I won't be able to say, but it's a safe bet Secret Life of the American Teenager slaughtered both in this category (IIRC it has done, like, a 20 share in the past).
Wow, The Bachelor came close to winning the 9PM hour in the demo.....
Worst Week is really dragging down the night. 2nd week in a row it has lost to The Bachelor. How embarrassing...what if its demo actually went BELOW a 3?
I think so. If ABC had brought back Dance Wars (too late it's gone now), it could have had two decent replacements to fill in between DWTS seasons (one on Monday, the other on Tuesday).
