CBS’s two-hour edition of 48 Hours Mystery was enough to put the network in first among households, but Cops (times two) and America’s Most Wanted were good enough to put Fox ahead of the competition among both viewers and adults 18-49.

Price is Right continues to draw strong ratings, as the program (the nights most-watched) led CBS to win among households and viewers.

NBC, however, managed to just do good enough to place first for the evening among adults 18-49, courtesy a two-hour edition of Dateline.

Elsewhere on the evening, The CW’s soon to be departing Smackdown managed some of its strongest ratings, drawing over 5 million viewers.

Broadcast TV Ratings for Thursday, March 6, 2008 March 7, 2008 4:30 pm

American Idol carried Fox to yet another Thursday night victory, but New Amsterdam, in its second episode, fell by 2.9 million or 22% among viewers and 20% among adults 18-49. Retention was also quite weak at only 40% among viewers and 38% among adults 18-49.

Total audience remains relatively solid (over 10 million viewers), so we’ll see how the show fares in its third outing in its new time slot this upcoming Monday.

Elsewhere on the evening, Survivor and repeats of CSI and Without a Trace kept CBS in its now familiar and solid second place, while ABC held off NBC for third place among total viewership, and was second among adults 18-49 thanks to a consistent performance by Lost.
