Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Animation, Comedy, Drama, Games, Prime Time, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Desperate Housewives, Everybody Hates Chris, Family Guy, Ratings,
Apparently Regis Philbin’s appeal is not limited to daytime hours. The host (and his Million Dollar Password) helped CBS win the viewers last night. Meanwhile, NBC - the only other network with originals yesterday - placed first in the demos.
8pm
- Million Dollar Password (2.2/7 in 18-49) engaged 10.7 million.
- A two-hour Most Outrageous Moments block (1.6/5) averaged 5.4 million.
- Extreme Makeover: Home Edition* (1.4/5) nailed down 5 million.
- The Simpsons* (2.0/7) kept 4.5 million amused; King of the Hill* (1.9/6) did the same for 4 million.
- Everybody Hates Chris* (920,000, 0.3/1) and Aliens in America* (880,000, 0.3/1) tied in the demos.

- Family Guy* (5.2 million, 2.5/7) had the night’s best demos; American Dad* (4.6 million, 2.3/6) retained most of its lead-in.
- Desperate Housewives* (3.3 million, 1.0/3) slipped by 300,000.
- Both The Game* (920,000, 0.4/1) and Girlfriends* (950,000, 0.5/1) had slight improvements.

I’ve never seen Million Dollar Password, but I am getting sick and tired of all these gameshows and reality tv shows! They were interesting when there were a few of them, but now that they have flooded the airways with them, because they are cheap to produce, that leaves less room for good dramas like 24 and House!
