Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Animation, Comedy, Daytime, Drama, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Specials, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Dancing With The Stars, House, Ratings,
I have a feeling after last night’s great numbers, we’ll still be seeing Linus sitting in that pumpkin patch next year. Although FOX’s Tuesday lineup had the best demos, the classic Halloween special helped ABC attract the largest audience.
8pm
- Although it was slightly down from last week, NCIS (16.3 million, 3.3/9 in 18-49 demo) had the hour’s largest audience.
- It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (11.4 million, 3.8/11) easily outperformed the usual Cavemen/Carpoolers numbers.
- Bones (8.9 million, 3.2/9) took a backseat to Snoopy.
- The Biggest Loser (6.3 million, 2.8/7) and The Singing Bee (5.8 million, 1.7/5) both declined from last week.
- Beauty and the Geek (2.3 million, 1.1/3) was down almost a million.
9pm
- At 18.8 million, Dancing With The Stars (4.3/10 in 18-49 demo) had the hour’s largest audience.
- House (17.2 million, 7.0/17) still outperformed in the demos.
- The Unit (2.8/7) came in third with 8.1 million viewers.
- CW’s Reaper (2.5 million, 1.1/3) was about even with last week.
10pm
- Thanks to a repeat on NBC, Boston Legal (11.2 million, 3.0/8 in 18-49 demo) had the hour’s best audience.
- A repeat of Law and Order: SVU (8.7 million, 3.0/8) still came in second.
- Surprisingly, Cane (8.1 million, 2.0/5) held on steady from last Tuesday.

Shrek the Halls With a Big Green Ogre
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Animation, Kids, Prime Time, ABC,
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la! Not only will Shrek the Third be coming to DVD soon (November 13), but ABC will be airing a Christmas special with the loveable green guy and his band of kooky friends. I don’t know how well it will hold up to classic fan favorites like How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman or A Charlie Brown Christmas, but I’m all for a new Christmas special that isn’t another sequel to Frosty. Shrek the Halls will air on November 28th at 8:00 p.m. and will no doubt thrill kids with the animation and voice talents of Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, Eddie Murphy and Antonio Banderas. The ogre’s humbug ways are challenged by his family and friends (even the Gingerbread Man of “Not my gumdrop buttons!” infamy is on hand) and you can bet the gang will make the holidays truly special. Because that’s how all Christmas specials end, right? Now I’d like to see Emmet Otter’s Jug Band Christmas return to television—you can keep your Frosty Returns and Frosty’s Winter Wonderland—bring on the jug band!
Coming Soon
