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.

Monday Ratings: Lackluster Finales for Heroes, Chuck

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, 24, Dancing With The Stars, Heroes, House, Medium, Ratings

If there ever was a time for fans to come out and support Chuck, it would have been last night. Unfortunately, the numbers for both NBC finales were basically flat from last week. (At least the network has already declared that Heroes will get a return.) Meanwhile, FOX beat out CBS in a tight race for the demos while ABC was in first with the viewers.

Will $5 Subways Save Chuck?

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, NBC

DescriptionFans desperate to save an NBC show are putting their mouths to work.

Those interested in bringing back for a third season are being asked to show their support at their local Subway. Grassroots organizers believe $5 footlong purchases from the franchise (recently featured in an episode) plus comments in their suggestion boxes will send the network a message.

Historically, campaigns like these have ended with mixed results. Peanuts sent to CBS gave Jericho a new, albeit short, lease on life. Tabasco shipments spiced things up for Roswell on the WB. But a blood campaign for Moonlight simply ended in disappointment.

If you plan on doing your part, you better do it quick! Sandwich sales should be made before the finale on Monday.

Monday Ratings: Bones is No House

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, 24, Dancing With The Stars, Heroes, Medium, Ratings

Attempts to give Bones more attention didn’t do much for either the show or the network. Despite decreased competition from CBS, the program pulled in smaller numbers than the normal slot holder. The series also declined from its last Thursday outing.
