FOX’s So You Think You Can Dance? returns a little down from its last season premiere, but is strong enough to give the network the win among adults 18-49. CBS though gets great mileage out of repeats, to win the night overall among households and viewers. A CSI repeat was the nights highest rated and most watched program.

Though down by a significant margin year-to-year, ‘Idol’ still managed to steamroll its competition, leading FOX to a first place finish for the evening. Solid, though also down, finale for Lost pushes ABC ahead of CBS’s repeat filled lineup.

CBS and NBC battle it out in a close Friday night, with CBS just barely coming atop among households and viewers, and the two networks tying among adults 18-49. Series debut of Bingo Night in America not so hot.

FOX expectedly wins the evening. Weak finale numbers for NBC shows, strong finale for The CW’s America’s Next Top Model, though its lead-out (One Tree Hill) performed poorly in terms of retention.

ABC holds off season finale filled night of broadcasts by CBS. King of Queens finishes its series run with strong ratings. Only CBS series to finish the season ahead of last year’s finale. CW finales weak.

Double dose of CBS finales gives the network a first place finish for the evening. The CW manages a noteworthy third among the key A18-49 demographic.

FOX has no trouble with the competition, easily winning the evening half-hour to half-hour, despite a lower than average outing for American Idol. Also, depressingly low ratings for Veronica Mars.
