Lost rose from a 3.9 rating with adults 18-49 to a 4.0 after its six minute overrun into the 10pm hour was factored into the final results. With those six minutes of Lost stripped out, in the final accounting the V clip special dropped from a 1.9 to a 1.6. American Idol moved up a tenth to an 8.4 rating in the final accounting.
