ABC’s Wednesday lineup - a victim of last year’s writers strike - had a large hurdle to overcome last night. Unfortunately, the viewers were not where the Alphabet network left them. The audiences (along with the demos) were all over at CBS.
8pm
- Bones (9.8 million, 3.1/9 in 18-49) tacked on another 200,000.
- Knight Rider (7.6 million, 2.4/7) got 300,000 more revved up.
- The New Adventures of Old Christine (6.9 million, 2.0/6) and Gary Unmarried (7 million, 2.2/6) were both up 200,000.
- Pushing Daisies (6.3 million, 2.0/6) was off 55% from this point last year.
- America’s Next Top Model (4 million, 1.8/5) was down a notch.

Despite great numbers for last week’s debut of Bones‘ debut last week, FOX saw a decline for Week 2. (Poor performances from the network’s comedies didn’t help.) This allowed NBC to take back both the viewers and the demos yesterday.
8pm
- America’s Got Talent (11.5 million, 2.9/8 in 18-49) grew by 1.3 million.
- Bones (8.9 million, 2.9/9) slipped by 800,000.
- Greatest American Dog (5.5 million, 1.7/5) retrieved 600,000 more.
- Wife Swap* (4 million, 1.4/4) tacked on another 300,000.
- America’s Next Top Model (3.8 million, 2.0/6) improved by 300,000.

Unfortunately for CW, good luck did not come in threes. Despite impressive debuts for Gossip Girl and 90210, the 11th cycle of America’s Next Top Model failed to impress. (In the show’s defense, it was pitted against stiff competition.) ANTM‘s performance gave FOX the chance to take over in the viewers and the demos.
8pm
- America’s Got Talent (10.2 million, 2.7/7 in 18-49) was Wednesday’s most watched show.
- The two-hour premiere of Bones (9.7 million, 3.3/9) had the night’s best demos.
- Greatest American Dog (1.4/4) retrieved 4.9 million.
- Wife Swap* (3.7 million, 1.3/4) did slightly better than last week.
- America’s Next Top Model (3.5 million, 1.7/5) had its lowest premiere numbers to date.

- Gossip Girl (CW, 8pm): Season 2 premiere. “Summer in the Hamptons winds down as Serena and Nate carry on a cover-up scheme to make others think they’re dating.” A few choice pics sent to Gossip Girl should do the trick.
- Prison Break (FOX, 8pm): Season 4 premiere. “Michael is in LA looking to even the score with Gretchen for Sara’s death.” I think Gretchen should really apologize for all of last season.
- One Tree Hill (CW, 9pm): Season 6 premiere. “Lucas’ chosen lady meets him at the airport, while Dan’s accident proves life-threatening.” Sorry. So not caring who Chad Michael Murray picks these days.
- Raising the Bar (TNT, 10pm): Series premiere. “Idealistic public defender Jerry Kellerman (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) fights for a man he’s sure is innocent, but holding a court is a judge who loathes Kellerman.” Gosselaar’s new hair has been generating some passionate opinions.
