CBS’ NCIS/NCIS/WIFE Combo Dominates!! MELROSE Dips 20%!! JAY LENO Still Bottom-Feeding!! Tuesday Ratings!!

I am – Hercules!!


All the big Tuesday night shows came on line last night, so it’s a good time to stare at those 18-49 ratings:

4.8 NCIS
4.4 NCIS Los Angeles
3.5 Dancing With The Stars
3.2 Hell’s Kitchen
3.1 The Good Wife
3.1 The Biggest Loser
2.6 The Forgotten
2.5 The Jay Leno Show
1.0 90210
0.8 Melrose Place

* CBS had its most-watched premiere-week Tuesday since 1993, according to the Hollywood Reporter’s James Hibberd.

* For the second day in a row “The Jay Leno Show” was the lowest-rated primetime show among the big-four networks, though it was up from Monday (thanks probably to lead-in “Biggest Loser” pulling a better number than “Heroes”).

* Mac Mackenzie > Sydney Andrews. “90210” pulled 2 million total viewers last night. “Melrose Place” pulled in 1.4 million viewers, down 20% from its already-weak opening. The final season of the CW’s “Veronica Mars” averaged 2.5 million viewers three seasons back. (The CW just announced they’ve backed up the Brink’s truck to hire Heather Locklear to guest on an upcoming “Melrose.”)
