   Wow, the victorious repeat of locked up did amazing! (in total viewers) Also considering the fact that — that tv special is VERY old.

   Guess Fairly Legal will get a third season renewal.

   FAIRLY LEGAL is so good this season. Glad to see last week was a fluke. It’s back up – hopefully enough!

   I know Melissa! I agree, I’m completely addicted. It’s kind of embarassing. HAHA

    Btw, aren’t the Sunday cable numbers posted today?

    @Nickelodeon Rocks 2012: Yeah, that special getting those numbers on its own was rather unexpected to show up here. Even moreso considering it bested both Race to Witch Mountain AND the TRON premiere. But it’s not THAT old, almost 10 months to be exact. And we’ll see the Sunday cable ratings tomorrow. Let’s hope that the new special did decent!

    “Btw, aren’t the Sunday cable numbers posted today?”

    Sunday’s cable ratings, and the Sunday broadcast final ratings are posted on Tuesdays.

    TUF ratings out. FX Networks terrible scheduling killed TUF in less than one season. Amazing.

    FX doesn’t get it. Spike has to be laughing.

    This is bad for the UFC who uses TUF to push PPVs and their other products.

    I am surprised Common Law is doing so well, for USA anyway. I totally forgot it was on Friday. I will try to find the episode somewhere.

    Have to say I can’t stand Fairly Legal. The lead female tries way too hard.

    7 million for Kobe on a Friday is SICK! Hopefully for the NBA’s sake OKC doesn’t end that series tonight. Game 6 & 7 numbers could be sicker.

    Common Law is surprisingly doing so well right now. USA has some promise in this one.

    Friends is doing pretty well inside Nick @ Nite.

    I’m laughing at all the USA network shills posting here. Fairly Legal is awful and its ratings are not good. You think a .5 is good?! But of course USA will renew it because they never cancel anything….

    @Bill Oops Sorry!

    @Epic, Hoping 4 million (or more)!

    “But of course USA will renew it because they never cancel anything….”

    Tell that to the fans of In Plain Sight and Monk which are just the most recent.
