That's unusually high for the last half hour of the CW Movie. Perhaps some people thought it was previews for the new movie, or actually the new movie.

Thats still a good demo for going up against the NBA Finals.

Ratings overall were really high for a CW movie.

LIVE: Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory
^-- One of the best comedy blocks in a long time!

DVR: Lie to Me

NBA Finals seem to be very low for ABC. I was expecting ratings to be higher than that.

Sundays at 7 PM is Dateline's weakest hour. Apocolypse Part One had some really low ratings. However, I don't think NBC promoted this at all.

A repeat of now cancelled WAT did very well out of its old timeslot.

Great viewing numbers for CW's 9pm hour but the demos were rather bad

How did the awesome season finale of True Blood do for HBO last night. Damn it was a good one!

That was the second season premiere. But yeah, it was good.

Wow. I understand the shortened seasons on HBO, but this is ridiculous.

I can only speak for one person, but I thought the series was over after thurs and wasn't surprised that LA won easily last nite. I checked the score a few times and watched the clinching moments.

I watched an evening of CBS last nite for the first time in a long time, curious to see the way they were promoting their new shows.

Not a ton of their promos, but I thought it was interesting - and probably smart - that TNT was promoting nurse drama Hawthorne on CBS last nite.

Cold Case - I hadn't watched much of this since season I, but I must say they had a good one last nite, "The Dealer," an interesting yarn set in the car dealer culture during economically distressed 1981.
