Broadcast TV Ratings for Thursday, February 21, 2008 February 22, 2008 1:25 pm

The first elimination episode of American Idol, and Don’t Forget the Lyrics!, led FOX to an easy first place finish on Thursday night.

Don’t Forget the Lyrics! was boosted by 3.84 million or 44% among viewers and a staggering 55% among adults 18-49 from its last newly aired episode thanks to its American Idol.

Elsewhere on the evening, CBS got another great night from its mixture of repeats (CSI and Without a Trace) and an original episode of the latest installment of Survivor to finish in a competitive second place for the evening among total audience.

ABC’s Lost seems to have stabilized in its fourth week back on the air, as the series posted nearly identical numbers from the week prior. Also worth noting is that Lost was the second most-watched program of the evening, behind American Idol. Eli Stone also managed to stay even with last week episode, though its numbers still remain relatively low, as does its retention from Lost, especially among adults 18-49. (60% among households, 56% among viewers and 47% among adults 18-49.)

NBC’s numbers were nothing out of the ordinary with a solid performance from Celebrity Apprentice, though its declined in recent weeks. Lipstick Jungle also stabilized, but its numbers are too low.

The CW even got in on some of the good news for the evening. Supernatural, without the benefit of an original episode of Smallville leading into it, proved that it can stand on its own. The series improved by 8% among both viewers and adults 18-49.

Fox carried the evening thanks to a two-hour edition of American Idol. However, the program declined from last week’s near 30M mark, by 1.12 million viewers (-4%) and 9% among adults 18-49.

Elsewhere on the evening, a two-hour edition of Biggest Loser and a repeat of SVU put NBC in second place, ahead of third place finisher CBS, who saw its original programs Big Brother and Jericho suffer steep week two declines in their new seasons. Jericho was off by 1.14 million, or 16% among viewers and 23% among adults 18-49 from last week’s season two premiere. Not good news.

ABC and The CW followed in fourth and fifth, respectively.

A two-hour edition of Deal or No Deal, the nights most-watched program, powered NBC to a win on Monday night among households, viewers and adults 18-49. The series premiere of My Dad Is Better Than Your Dad drew only so-so numbers, as the program managed to only hold 58% of its lead-in’s audience. It’s performance among adults 18-49 was a little better (67%), but still not great.

Elsewhere on the evening, CBS got solid results from a mostly repeat filled lineup, finishing in second place for the evening among total audience. Welcome to the Captain and The New Adventures of Old Christine were the only new programs CBS aired, with the former being the only poor performer. In its third week on the air, the series posted series lows. The show is off by 2.46M viewers (31%), 33% among households and 23% among adults 18-49 from its series premiere.  Enjoy it while it lasts, because it’s highly doubtful it’ll be around past this season.

Fox got a solid second place finish for the evening among adults 18-49 thanks to the season three finale of Prison Break and an original episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which continues to rate well among the coveted A18-49 demographic, despite not being a heavily viewed program.

ABC trailed with an okay performance out of the season finale of Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann, and another poor outing from October Road, while The CW’s new season of The Pussycat Dolls Present, got off to a very, very poor start. Compared to last season’s premiere, the show declined by 2.16M, or (55%) among viewers, 46% among households and 47% among adults 18-49.

Ouch.

Ratings for the entire night follow after the jump.

ABC original lineup, anchored by the nights most-watched show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, led the evening among households and viewers.

NBC, however, managed to take the win among adults 18-49 thanks to the networks successful airing of the back-door pilot Knight Rider movie, which was the nights most-watched show among the key A18-49 demo. The movie grew in each half-hour.

Elsewhere on the evening, the network-broadcast premiere of the Showtime series Dexter got off a so-so start. Overall viewership was somewhat low, but it did manage to build from its lead-in among adults 18-49. Over on Fox, the network did its usual solid numbers among adults 18-49 from its comedy lineup and the ending portion of the Daytona 500.

Weak night split between NBC (first in viewers and households) and Fox (first in adults 18-49).

The season five finale of NBC’s Las Vegas led that network to a first place finish on the evening, while repeats of House secured a first place finish among adults 18-49 for Fox.

Las Vegas, however, was off by more than 1 million viewer (14%) and 15% among adults 18-49 from last season’s finale.
