Looks like somebody just wasn’t in the mood to share this week. Although Thursdays are typically known for win-win situations (CBS wins the viewers; ABC wins the demos), that was not the case last night. This time around the Eye network surprisingly took both categories.
8pm
- Survivor: Samoa (12.3 million, 3.8/11 in 18-49) was off by 900,000.
- Bones (9.8 million, 2.7/8) remained steady.
- FlashForward (8 million, 2.4/7) lost another 300,000.
- Community (5.1 million, 2.0/6) tied Parks and Recreation (4.6 million, 2.0/6) in the demos.
- The Vampire Diaries (3.7 million, 1.6/5) fell by 600,000.

Alec Baldwin Not Feeling Academy Awards Pressure
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Award Shows, Prime Time, ABC, Gossip
Alec Baldwin isn’t nervous about next year’s Academy Awards. The 30 Rock star is co-hosting next year’s ceremony with Steve Martin and believes there are higher expectations on the comic actor.
“It is all on Steve. Steve Martin has done this before, while for me it is the first time. All the pressure is on Steve Martin,” he quipped.
Despite his confidence, the actor is still amazed he was given the job and keeps waiting for someone to cancel his booking. “I am doing it until they change their mind. I do have some preparations, but it is a secret,” Alec joked.
Steve – who fronted the 73rd and 75th Academy Awards - and Alec are the first people to co-host the ceremony since the first Oscars show in 1929.
The 82nd Academy Awards take place on March 7 at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles.

Sorry, Kelsey - but you were just replaced by a repeat. A repeat (Modern Family) that did better than your last appearance. A repeat that helped its lead-out (The Middle) pick up an additional 1 million over its previous outing.

- A Modern Family* repeat (6.2 million, 1.9/6) did 900,000 better than Hank; The Middle (7.1 million, 2.4/7) was helped by its new lead-in.
- Dancing with the Stars (5.7 million, 2.1/6) picked up 200,000.

Mark Your Calendars: Lost, Chuck Return Soon
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, NBC, Lost, News
Christmas may end on December 26th, but we still have things to look forward to in early 2010.
Shortly after New Year’s, Chuck will make its return to NBC. The show - which was recently saved by a strong fan base - will kick off with a two-hour premiere on Sunday, January 10. It will then slide into its normal Monday/8:00 time slot the very next day (January 11). This assignment means Heroes will then be pushed into the 9:00 position.
Less than a month later, Lost will debut its final season. The ABC drama will have a three-hour event on Tuesday, February 2nd before settling into its Tuesday/9:00 time slot on February 9.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Animation, Drama, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Specials, Talk Shows, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Dancing With The Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, Ratings
Didn’t know Heather Locklear was moving back to Melrose Place? Apparently you weren’t the only who missed that invite. Locklear’s return to the famous address hardly raised an eyebrow last night. The CW program still pulled in under a 1.0 in the rating and trailed behind its lead-in.
8pm
- NCIS (20.2 million, 4.1/11 in 18-49) remained steady.
- V (9.3 million, 3.1/8) let another 1.4 million escape.

- NBC’s Merry Madagascar (2.9/8) entertained 5 million.
- So You Think You Can Dance (6 million, 2.4/7) raised 200,000.
- 90210 (2.1 million, 1.1/3) did the same as last week.

Is Alex O’Loughlin headed for another CBS cancellation, or will the former Moonlight star live to see another season? The answer might not be so clear right now. Last night’s Three Rivers with guest star Mandy Patinkin reached its best demos to date.

Sneak Peek: Lautner, Stewart and Pattinson Visit Jimmy Kimmel
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Late Night, Talk Shows, ABC, Gossip, Video
Taylor Lautner has just earned himself a spot on This Week in Unnecessary Censorship.
During a pre-taped interview for Jimmy Kimmel Live, the werewolf - who was joined by an animated (huh??) Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson - revealed the biggest hurdle in his quest for six-pack abs. It surprisingly had nothing to do with crunches. (At least, not that kind.)
You can see the full chat this Friday night after watching the premiere of New Moon.
