MONDAY 1/12)
- 24 (FOX, 8pm): “Jack is released from his Senate subcommittee hearing to help with the domestic threat and the investigation into former colleague Tony Almeida.” I can’t imagine what he would do to just to get out of jury duty.
- Kyle XY (ABC Family, 9pm): Season 3 premiere. “Lori, Declan, Josh and Andy deal with the choices they made at the prom.” Whatever happens at prom, stays at prom.
- Man vs. Wild (Discovery, 10pm): “An adventure in the jungles of Belize has the host reckoning with a 9-foot boa constrictor and a dangerous white-water river.” The longer the snake, the more skin to pee in.

This Week on TV (11/24-11/30)
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Animation, Comedy, Drama, Kids, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Specials, ABC, Bravo, Cable, CBS, FX, FOX, MTV, NBC, The CW, Dancing With The Stars, Everybody Hates Chris, House, Survivor,
(You can view TV Envy’s Television Programming Schedule here.)
MONDAY (11/24)- Dancing with the Stars (ABC, 8pm): After ten weeks, it all ends tonight. Sadly, I can’t even remember the names of the first two eliminated.
- Samantha Who? (ABC, 9:30): “Sam invites boyfriend Owen (James Tupper) for dinner to meet her parents, but Owen and Howard don’t hit it off.” Seems Howard doesn’t approve of his relationship with Anne Heche either.
- Valkyrie: The Plot to Kill Hitler (History, 10pm): “Recalling Operation Valkyrie, a failed plot devised by German officers to assassinate Adolf Hitler.” By choosing this documentary over the Tom Cruise version, you’ll be able to save a few more bucks for Christmas.
- The Hills (MTV, 10pm): “Audrina confronts Lauren and Justin after rumors circulate that the two hooked up.” By “confront,” we mean Audrina has them refer to the television interviews she’s conducted on the topic.

Friday Ratings: Lipstick Jungle Not Seeing Improvement
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings,
If there ever was a time for fans to support Lipstick Jungle, it’s now. Unfortunately, the show facing cancellation just took another another step backward, not forward. Last night, the show placed third in its hour and dropped 21% from last week. But then again, if Knight Rider can get a full season pickup - who knows?
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (11.4 million, 2.7/9 in 18-49) fell by 400,000.
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (6 million, 1.3/4) picked up a 1/2 million.
- Deal or No Deal (5.7 million, 1.2/4) added on 400,000.
- Wife Swap (4.8 million, 1.7/5) tacked on 200,000 more.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.8 million, 0.7/2) did the same as last week; The Game (1.6 million, 0.8/2) was down a notch.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Specials, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings,
Despite lower numbers for the 9:00 hour (no NCIS repeat this this time), CBS was still on top last Friday. A large part of the network’s success was due to Ghost Whisperer. The series hit a season high with the viewers last week.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (11.7 million, 2.9/10 in 18-49) picked up 600,000.
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (5.5 million, 1.2/4) fell by 900,000.

Friday Ratings: CBS Owns the Evening
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Kids, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings,
At this point, I’m not sure if there is anything CBS could do wrong on Friday nights. Even when things were down (a.k.a. The Ex List days), the network was still on top. Now a repeat is surpassing the Eye’s originals.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (11.05, 2.8/9 in 18-49) had the night’s best demos.
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (6.4 million, 1.6/5) raised its grade by 1.8 million.
- Deal or No Deal (5.5 million, 1.1/4) scored a 1/2 million more.
- Wife Swap (4.6 million, 1.7/6) picked up a million.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.7 million, 0.7/2) added on 400,000; The Game (1.7 million, 0.8/2) drew in 500,000 more.

Friday Ratings: CBS Better Off without Ex List
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Games, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, Everybody Hates Chris, Ratings,
Although most shows saw lower numbers on Halloween night, CBS didn’t spook viewers away. In fact, the network - which dumped The Ex List last week - did even better thanks to a repeat of NCIS. Meanwhile, Lipstick Jungle‘s performance on NBC Friday looked downright scary. The program was down 35% from its last Wednesday outing.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (9.4 million, 2.2/8 in 18-49) was off by 600,000.
- Deal or No Deal (5 million, 0.9/4) gave away a million.
- Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? (4.6 million, 10/4) lost 1.1 million.
- Wife Swap (3.6 million, 1.1/4) fell by 600,000.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.3 million, 0.5/2) and The Game (1.2 million, 0.6/2) both sliced off 500,000.

Sunday Ratings: No Strikeout for FOX
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sports, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Desperate Housewives, Everybody Hates Chris, The Office, Ratings,
It looks like the fourth time was still a charm for FOX. Although it was down 28% from 2007’s numbers, yesterday’s game between the Phillies and the Rays was the best of the series so far. Despite competition from ABC, Game 4 of the World Series gave its network wins in both categories last night.
8pm
- Approximately 15.5 million watched the Philadelphia Phillies take Game 4 of the World Series (5.1 in 18-49).
- Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (12.2 million, 3.9/10) nailed down another 1.4 million.
- The Amazing Race (9.7 million, 2.9/7) had 1.5 million less.
- NBC‘s broadcast of The 40-Year-Old Virgin attracted 4.3 million (1.9/5).
- Valentine (846,000, 0.3/1) actually did about 96,000 better than last week.

Despite being sandwiched in between Friday night’s best shows, CBS’ The Ex List continues to slide in the ratings. Nevertheless, the network still manages to dominate the week-end numbers.
