Numbers of Interest - Television Ratings for Tuesday 04/27/10

Fox won with American Idol (6.9) and Glee (5.2).

CBS was second with NCIS (3.5), NCIS: Los Angeles (3.2), and The Good Wife (2.2). CBS must be smarting from that sad 2.2 from TGW. TV By the Numbers brought up an interesting question: Did CBS renew The Good Wife too early? Looks like it, but the trigger has been pulled.

NBC was third with The Biggest Loser (2.8) and Parenthood (2.4).

ABC was last with Dancing with the Stars (2.4), a repeat of Lost (1.8), and a new episode of V (1.9). Now V is looking as sad as FlashForward. Let us count the new ABC dramas doomed to failure: FlashForward, V, Eastwick, The Deep End, The Forgotten, and most likely Happy Town. Bad year for them.
