-Ratings Breakdown:
On this Thursday of three-way leadership, rejuvenated ABC danced its way to victory in the overnights, repeat CBS was the most-watched network, and NBC dominated among adults 18-49. NBC’s relocated My Name Is Earl and The Office picked up steam from 9-10 p.m. p.m., NBC’s Four Kings remained promising, the debut of ABC’s Crumbs was off and running, and season two of the WB’s Beauty and the Geek fit like a glove out of Smallville. Yes, it was a great night for network TV, and proof of the unprecedented power of this medium.

Over at NBC, new Thursday anchor Will & Grace got some mileage, with a 7.4/11 in the overnights (#2), 9.69 million viewers (#2) and a first-place 4.4/12 among adults 18-49 at 8 p.m. That led into week two of the compatible Four Kings at a respectable 6.5/10 in the overnights (#3), 9.13 million viewers (#2) and a second-place 4.5/12 among adults 18-49 at 8:30 p.m. Growth of one-tenth of a rating point among adults 18-49 out of Will & Grace (and opposite ABC’s Dancing With the Stars juggernaut) makes Four Kings a winner.
Week two of NBC Thursday 9 p.m. anchor My Name Is Earl perked up to an 8.6/12 in the overnights (#3), 12.52 million viewers (#3) and a first-place 5.9/15 among adults 18-49. That led into a vastly improved The Office at a 6.7/10 (#3) in the overnights, 10.29 million viewers (#3) and a second-place 5.1/12 among adults 18-49 -- another positive for NBC, which is suddenly back in business on Thursday. Sorry, Donald Trump -- it looks like you will definitely have to find another time period for the next edition of The Apprentice. You have been permanently evicted!
