Spotted Ratings, Monday 10/24/11


WHAT MATTERS:
  • CBS' lineup fell in finals but was still almost entirely up week-to-week. That news was best for Two and a Half Men, which ends its string of four straight declines.
  • Game 5 of the World Series finished even with last year's fifth and final game. Tomorrow night, Fox roots for the Cardinals, as that would set up the first World Series Game 7 since 2002.
  • Among the other three nets, the only one with anything noteworthy to report was the CW, where Gossip Girl gained a tenth from last week and Hart of Dixie was up 0.2 to tie its series high from its first two weeks. It also set a new series high in total viewers.

Note: Apparently an error at Nielsen led to an incorrect rating for ESPN's Monday Night Football, which I typically count as competition on Monday. I just threw in a 4.0 A18-49 as a placeholder. Not sure if we'll see the final number.
