FlashForward took another drop to 2.4 which is a very steep drop from the premiere of 2.4. It continues to tumble as the weeks pass, and it's only the ninth episode. After shows get bad press and bad comments from normal viewers, it's hard to recover. Maybe it can make a creative comeback with David Goyer replacing Marc Guggenheim, but it'll be hard to lure viewers who've already been disappointed.
In other news, ABC actually did worse than CBS for the night with Grey's Anatomy (5.1), and Private Practice (3.1) along with Flashforward which I've already discussed.
Fox was down from last week with Bones (2.7) and Fringe (2.0). Fringe continues to fluctuate in the 1.9-2.2 range which is NBC Terrible (new phrase). I think the best choice for Fox would be to move Fringe after House on Mondays, and move Lie to Me after Bones. I know changing things up on a Monday that is currently working is risky, but Fox needs to do something about Fringe's lagging numbers.
CBS was also down from last week with Survivor (3.8), CSI (3.5), and The Mentalist (3.7) which was up. It continues to be very consistent while CSI has been changing week to week.
NBC was down from last week with Community (2.0), Parks and Recreation (2.0), The Office (3.7), 30 Rock (2.8), and The Jay Leno Show (1.6).
CW has a good combo of The Vampire Diaries (1.6) and Supernatural (1.2) which are holding up against stiff competition.
Pretty much everything was down today which if you're inclined to think this way can be attributable to New Moon. There can't be any statistical data to prove this, but it is an odd coincidence.
