My Thoughts: P. Diddy’s Raisin in the Sun performed
well for ABC. Besides that, more of the same for a still strike-effected
Monday night…

Primetime: What Would You Do?, ABC
My Thoughts: Only CBS’s ratings improved from last
Tuesday. Idol’s numbers were down, yet still dominant.
Back to You wouldn’t attract an audience in any other
time-slot. And NBC’s quarterlife made like a CW show…

My Thoughts: Idol‘s numbers were slightly down

to tire of Simon, Seacrest and the gang? Meanwhile, the original
Law & Order continues to perform admirably for NBC…
