Year two the American Idol special Idol Gives Back, which ran from 7:30-10:00, gave Fox an easy victory, but the program was off by more than 30% among both viewers and adults 18-49 from how the program rated last year. Most of that loss of viewership can probably be attributed to there being no competition/elimination round, which was the case last year.
Elsewhere on the evening, CBS was a competitive second place headlined by solid outings from Criminal Minds and CSI: NY, despite the latter dropping by 14% in the demo, while ABC and NBC battled over third place (ABC third among viewers, NBC third among adults 18-49).
The CW’s Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious received a slight bounce from an America’s Next Top Model clip show, but it still failed to hit 2 million viewers.

Secret Talents of the Stars attracted just 4.58M viewers and a 1.5/4 rating/share among adults 18-49.

Fox’s American Idol and Hell’s Kitchen remained in front of the competition on Tuesday night.
ABC, meanwhile, was a competitive second headlined by Dancing With the Stars, and Boston Legal returned from its nearly two month hiatus strong (+2.73M/37% among viewers and +39% among adults 18-49).
Rounding out the rest of the evening, NBC finished in its usual solid third place with The Biggest Loser, while the return of NCIS on CBS wasn’t enough to keep the network out of fourth place.

So much for Kansas/Memphis not being a good match for ratings. There was no decline in viewership from the year prior matchup as CBS took the night, once again holding its own against ABC’s Dancing With the Stars.
