Dr. Phil did some slaughtering himself...

Missed Lost because my TIVO was busy with Smallville, and my VCR was busy with A's Next Top Model (for my wife, I promise)... guess I'll catch the repeat next next Sunday. Still, Wed. will be a busy night...

Does anyone know if The Mountain did worse than Angel did the same time last year? I sure would like to proove them wrong on their decision to cancel Angel in favor of this or any other show they had planned for Wednesdays at 9:00.

Glad to see That 70s show down at the bottom of the list.

Smallville beating That 70s Show is surprising. Must have picked up geeks who watch both Enterprise and Smallville.

Ask and ye shall receive...

According to www.thefutoncritic.com
And on the netlets, the premieres of "Smallville" (households: 3.6/6, #8; adults 18-49: 2.7, #7) and "The Mountain" (households: 2.6/4, #14; adults 18-49: 1.8, #T13) on The WB (households: 3.1/5, #5; adults 18-49: 2.3, #5) easily beat the launches of "America's Next Top Model" (households: 2.8/5, #13; adults 18-49: 1.8, #T13) and "Veronica Mars" (households: 1.8/3, #15; adults 18-49: 1.1, #15) on UPN (households: 2.3/4, #6; adults 18-49: 1.4, #6). In year-to-year comparisons (9/24/03), the Frog was up from its special "Hilary Duff's Island Birthday Bash" (households: 1.6/3; adults 18-49: 0.7) and an encore of "One Tree Hill" (households: 1.5/2; adults 18-49: 0.8). Versus "Smallville's" actual premiere (10/1/03) last season (households: 4.3/7; adults 18-49: 3.1) the Frog was down by a bit while "Angel's" season premiere (households: 3.8/6; adults 18-49: 2.7) easily topped this year's newcomer. UPN, meanwhile, was on par with new episodes of "Star Trek: Enterprise" (households: 2.6/4; adults 18-49: 1.9) and "Jake 2.0" (households: 1.9/3; adults 18-49: 0.9) a year ago.

Hard to compare The Mountain to Angel. The same counterprogramming is not there yet (no West Wing nor King of Queens). Law & Order is much stronger in the ratings than West Wing.

Interesting night last night

The Donald got a beatdown as CSI almost doubled The Apprentice in # of viewers

The big news is a new Without A Trace finally beat a new ER

That noise you heard last night was NBC officially passing the Must-See TV torch to rival CBS. For the first time opposite an all-original NBC lineup, the Eye network — paced by the season premieres of CSI and Without a Trace — won Thursday night in the Peacock's cherished adults 18-49 demo. At 8 pm, Survivor: Vanuatu (farewell, Dolly) scored a decisive victory over NBC's Joey/Will & Grace combo, while CSI crushed The Apprentice (buh-bye, Stacie J.) at 9 pm — 30 million viewers to 15.6 million viewers. But the big story was at 10 pm, where Without a Trace edged out the 11th-season premiere of ER among total viewers — another first. Now, that's what I call an emergency.
