Numbers of Interest - Television Ratings for Tuesday 11/24/09 - V stabilizes

V stopped falling, landing at a very respectable 3.1. The problem is that there won't be any new episodes until March, so any gains they've made in the fall probably won't stick, especially with an episode that I didn't consider particularly amazing. I don't understand ABC's reasoning behind this long hiatus, but the creative process really must have been terrible for them to take such drastic action.

ABC finished the night strong with the two-hour season finale of Dancing with the Stars (4.3) which hit a season high.

CBS was way up from last week with NCIS (4.4), NCIS: Los Angeles (4.3), and The Good Wife (2.8). Despite the greatly improved lead-in, The Good Wife only managed to gain .2 from last week. NCIS: Los Angeles had a crossover episode with Pauley Perrette who plays Abby on NCIS.

NBC continued its strong Tuesdays with The Biggest Loser (3.5) and The Jay Leno Show (1.9) which seems to have stabilized.
