    Dancing blasts playoffs and football drama in ratings

    Wow, not even the yankees could draw a TV crowd. And looks like NBC is going to lose a new show FAST.



    Baseball Fails to Draw a Crowd

    Post-season baseball pretty much popped out Tuesday night as Fox's telecast of the New York Yankees-Detroit Tigers American League playoff game averaged a 5.1 rating and an 8 share, according to Nielsen overnights. NBC also failed to score with its new football-themed drama Friday Night Lights, which drew a 4.7 in the 8:00 pm. hour. ABC's Dancing with the Stars was the only physical activity most viewers were interested in, it seems, as the contest drew an 11.4/19 in the 8:00 p.m. hour, then went on to register a 13.2/20 at 9:00 p.m. Meanwhile, CBS's CSI: Crime Scene Investigation returned to the top of the Nielsen heap last week, followed by last week's No. 1 show, ABC's Grey's Anatomy.ABC's Desperate Housewives slipped to third place, followed by Dancing with the Stars and CBS's CSI: Miami.

    ABC is taking no prisoners.
    It's going to possibly end three NBC series at this rate.

    You should've seen the look on Jerry's face when he heard that he's moving on.

    He's like "WHAT...THE....****?"

    I'm surprised he made it this far. If it wasn't for his popularity, I don't think he would've made past round 1.

    For one thing, it's the playoffs.
    And another is that Detroit is actually in the playoffs (and since the lions again have no football team, you'd think more would be paying attention).

    You mean not even the rained out Yankees could draw a TV crowd. Not a lot of fun watching fans get rained on.
    Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error and the honest difference of opinion; it cannot accommodate deceit or subordination of principle.

    SNF and MNF have done well, but SNF lost to the Desperate Hoewives.

    I thought this was about Wednesday's game. Guess I missed the Tuesday part in the quote.
