Numbers of Interest - Television Ratings for Wednesday 01/20/10

Fox was first with American Idol (9.9) and Human Target (3.4). That lead in from Idol is huge and could push any show to extreme heights. Imagine if Chuck was after Idol.

CBS was second with the New Adventures of Old Christine (1.9), Gary Unmarried (1.8), Criminal Minds (4.2), and CSI: NY (3.5). The comedies are taking hits from ABC's block even if they are repeats.

NBC was third with repeats of Modern Family (1.6), The Middle (1.7), and new episodes of Modern Family (4.2), Cougar Town (3.4), and Ugly Betty (1.6).

NBC was last with Mercy (1.4), a repeat of Law & Order: SVU (1.4), and The Jay Leno Show (1.2).
