Ratings: 'American Idol,' 'Human Target' back on track
Good news for Fox: In Week 2 of the time slot switcheroo for American Idol and Human Target, Hollywood Week with Ellen DeGeneres saw the 9 p.m. Idol increase its audience by roughly 4 million viewers from last Wednesday, while Human Target grew by about 1 million to claim the 8 p.m. hour in its first head-to-head with CBS’ The New Adventures of Old Christine and Gary Unmarried. (It’s still, however, about 1 million shy of its last airing at 9 p.m.) NBC should be happy (or sad?) knowing that a repeat of Law & Order: SVU outperformed The Jay Leno Show in the 10 p.m. slot. The CW continued to score a nice turnout for encore episodes of Life Unexpected.
