Yes! Women's Murder Club didn't do well!

I LIKE WMC. Leave it alone. 60 minutes of watching Angie Harmon is never a bad thing. :>))

If I'm not mistaken those are decent numbers for Shark... like that show as well.

Round-Up...

Fox had a typical night and easily lead the way though it would be nice to see how Hell's Kitchen would do without Idol as the lead in.

NCIS remains one of the few shows that is unaffected by Idol due to its older audience but still a good demo from the show. Shark had a decent night with good total viewers but for a 9pm show, below average demo numbers. Shark is clearly a 10pm show and should return for CBS, IMO in the Tuesday night slot next fall. Also The Unit normally scores 10+ million plus with a good demo in that 9pm slot so that should return IMO to partner NCIS but still no word on a 4th season.

ABC should move According to Jim to fridays next fall to minimise the damage it causes and WMC shown clearly that its a friday night show only and ABC should leave it there for next fall.

NBC, that was pathetic and rumors thankfully show that CW's Beauty & The Geek will be put on hiatus for next season but CW are not cancelling the show. Despite being a loser, Reaper does deserve a 2nd season but The CW are clueless so expect the show to be cancelled.
