Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, So You Think You Can Dance, Ratings,

Monday Ratings: Weak Premiere for American Gladiators
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Dancing With The Stars, House, Medium, The Bachelor, Ratings,
Why NBC chose to bring back American Gladiators at this time is beyond me. Had the show debuted after the latest round of finales, it might have fared better than fourth place. Meanwhile, ABC was another winner with the viewers while FOX was tops in the demos.
8pm
- Dancing with the Stars (18.3 million, 4.2/11 in 18-49) was the night’s most-watched show.
- Bones (9.4 million, 3.2/9) grew by 1.3 million.
- Britney Spears helped draw 700,000 more to How I Met Your Mother (9 million, 3.8/9); The Big Bang Theory (7.9 million, 2.9/9) tacked on another 300,000.
- The American Gladiators debut (4.9 million, 1.9/5) did about 1/2 as well as Deal or No Deal.
- Approximately 2.6 million tuned in to hear Serena’s big secret on Gossip Girl (1.2/3).

(You can view TV Envy’s Post-Strike Television Schedule here.)
MONDAY (5/5)
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9:00): (The script was written by CSI scribes.) “George Eads (CSI) has a cameo in which a CSI team investigates a death at Charlie’s house.” I know Charlie wanted to stop Denise’s reality show, but this is quite a sweeps stunt.
- House (FOX, 9pm): “House believes that an actor (Jason Lewis) on his favorite soap is seriously ill after observing his symptoms on television, so he decides to intervene.” If I had known something like that would work, I would have kidnapped Smith Jerrod a long time ago.
- Samantha Who? (ABC, 9:30pm): “Sam’s affair with Todd continues while he’s still seeing a clueless Chloe.” I’m sorry—why doesn’t Sam just kick her out of her apartment again? She does own the thing, doesn’t she?
- CSI: Miami (CBS, 10pm): “Alexx is stunned when her son is the prime suspect in a murder investigation, and any help she offers could prove costly.” Buh-bye, Khandi!
