While to no one’s surprise, CBS dominated the night from 9-11 and overall had the most average viewers and adults 18-49, Fox’s Secret Millionaire was the surprise of the night, winning both demos from 8-9 and improving its demos noticeably from last week when it faced off against Rudolph.
After 9 it was all CBS, with both Criminal Minds doubling and CSI:NY coming close to doubling the viewership of the #2 shows in the hours. Their demo performance wasn’t quite as dominating, but it was close.
With Jay Leno taking 5 hours of prime time next fall, Life’s 1.8 rating in the 18-49 demo is nowhere near good enough to keep it around as NBC will have a big knife out this spring to pare down to 10 programmed hours from Monday-Friday. Sadly, and I write this as a fan, Law & Order’s uptick last week may have been an aberration as it settled back badly this week.
