HEROES In Ratings Basement!! LIE TO ME Plummets 41%!! TRAUMA Tanks!! Monday Ranks!!

I am – Hercules!!


Only two premieres, of “Trauma” and “Lie To Me,” last night. The 18-49 rankings (last week in parentheses):

5.7 (6.5) House
5.1 (4.6) Big Bang Theory
4.7 (4.4) Two and a Half Men
4.1 (4.3) CSI: Miami
3.6 (4.1) Dancing With The Stars
3.6 (3.5) How I Met Your Mother
3.1 (3.2) Accidentally On Purpose
2.9 (----) Lie To Me
2.3 (2.3) Castle
2.3 (----) Trauma
2.3 (2.7) Heroes
1.8 (1.8) The Jay Leno Show
1.2 (1.2) One Tree Hill
1.2 (1.1) Gossip Girl

* “Big Bang Theory” hit its best number yet.

* “Heroes” looks like it’ll soon be grounded.

* “Lie To Me” lost almost half the audience of “House,” its Fox lead-in. It was down 44% from its January premiere. Fox pays Tim Roth a weekly fortune for this series.

* “Trauma,” with its helicopter crashes and freeway mayhem, opened weak but still pulled better numbers than NBC’s other Monday-night shows, “Heroes” and “Jay Leno.”
