Numbers of Interest - Television Ratings for Wednesday 01/13/10

Fox won again with American Idol (10.1) and a repeat of the Simpsons (3.6), crushing all competition.

CBS took some damage from AI with the New Adventures of Old Christine (1.8), Garry Unmarried (1.9), Criminal Minds (3.8), and CSI: NY (3.5). Criminal Minds benefited greatly with Idol ending at 9:30 while the comedies were hit hardest.

ABC was next with a repeat of Modern Family (1.6), The Middle (2.1), Modern Family (3.3), Cougar Town (3.1), and Ugly Betty (1.6). The half hour comedies have all been renewed, so they are safe, but Ugly Betty looks dead.

NBC was again last with Mercy (1.5), Law & Order: SVU (2.0), and The Jay Leno Show (1.5).
