MONDAY (10/6)
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9pm): “Alan tries dating two women at the same time.” I remember when Ducky was pining over just Molly Ringwald. He’s all growns up now.
- Prison Break (FOX, 9pm): “Sara learns something disturbing about Michael.” She realizes that if it weren’t for his steely gaze and tattoos, Michael would just be your average white guy.
- I Want to Work for Diddy (VH1, 9pm): Series finale. “The final contestants train with Marcus Buckingham and are interviewed by Diddy.” If they mistakenly admit their loyalty for McCain, Diddy will retreat back under the covers.
- Exiled (MTV, 10:30pm): “A hip hop star’s daughter is sent to the island nation Vanuatu to live in a bug-filled jungle in the shadow of an active volcano.” Had she wasted her youth watching Survivor: Vanuatu, she would have been prepared.

MONDAY (9/29)
- Chuck (NBC, 8pm): Season 2 premiere. “Chuck mixes it up with a formidable operative (Michael Clarke Duncan) out to obtain a device that would potentially give rise to a new Intersect.” Thankfully, he knows a girl from Wienerlicious who can take the big guy down.
- Heroes (NBC, 9pm): “Peter looks to the past to stop the future.” Is going back to Season Two an option?
- 100 Greatest Hip Hop Songs (VH1, 9pm): “A five-part countdown of the Top 100 hip hop songs.” Because when I think hip hop, I think VH1.
- Life (NBC, 10pm): Season 2 premiere. “Crews and Reese track a serial killer who’s placing victims in numbered trunks around the city.” Ooh—I love scavenger hunts!

Wednesday Ratings: ANTM Hits New Low
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Specials, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, Ratings,
Unfortunately for CW, good luck did not come in threes. Despite impressive debuts for Gossip Girl and 90210, the 11th cycle of America’s Next Top Model failed to impress. (In the show’s defense, it was pitted against stiff competition.) ANTM‘s performance gave FOX the chance to take over in the viewers and the demos.
8pm
- America’s Got Talent (10.2 million, 2.7/7 in 18-49) was Wednesday’s most watched show.
- The two-hour premiere of Bones (9.7 million, 3.3/9) had the night’s best demos.

CBS’ decision to bring Greatest American Dog to Wednesdays didn’t do much for the network. That said, an early repeat of SYTYCD allowed CBS to take a rare win in the viewers. Meanwhile, the demos still belonged to FOX.
