Where were you when the visitors arrived last night? Yesterday’s highly-anticipated debut of V had the best 18-49 performance for any new series this season. Its audience numbers also came in right behind the premiere of NCIS: Los Angeles for freshman programs. Unfortunately, that one show couldn’t carry the whole network. CBS still won in the viewers and had a tight victory in the demos.
8pm

- So You Think You Can Dance (6.1 million, 2.4/6) lost 400,000.

DWTS’ Lacey Schwimmer Out with Flu
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, News
Another week calls for another substitution.
Although Season 8 of Dancing with the Stars was riddled with celebrity injuries, Season 9 has been hit on the professional side. Two weeks ago, Derek Hough was temporarily replaced by Maksim Chmerkovskiy when he was hit with the flu. Now, Lacey Schwimmer is using up one of her sick days.
On tonight’s broadcast, Anna Trebunskaya will play the part of Mark Dacascos’ partner. Anna originally stepped in this weekend to help the Iron Chef America star rehearse, but her role later increased when Schwimmer’s condition worsened. Unfortunately, this last-minute shuffling only gave the pair two days to learn two dances (the samba and a group paso doble.)
So how is Lacey feeling right now? Well - according to a tweet from earlier today, not great. “Guys I’m super sad to be sick today. Ugh,” she wrote.

Could it really get any worse than this? Although the program faced a CBS repeat, The Jay Leno Show did the unthinkable last night: it went down. The talk show went so far down, it hit a season low in the demos. ABC, in the meantime, took advantage of the decreased competition and scored wins in both the viewers and the demos this Monday.
8pm
- Dancing with the Stars (3.8/10 in 18-49) averaged 17.4 million over the two hours.
- How I Met Your Mother* (2.6/7) pulled in 7.1 million; Accidentally on Purpose* (2.1/5) nabbed 6 million.
- Heroes (2.5/6) scored 5.9 million.
- A special So You Think You Can Dance (2.6/7) attracted 5.8 million.
- One Tree Hill (2.7 million, 1.3/3) hit season highs.
