Things aren’t looking good over at NBC. Heroes and Chuck both premiered with declines—and have now continued their seasons with declines. This lack of competition helped ABC with the viewers and CBS with another win in the demos.
8pm
- Dancing with the Stars (18.8 million, 4.3/11 in 18-49) was in step with last week.
- The Big Bang Theory (9.3 million, 3.7/10) picked up 600,000; How I Met Your Mother added on 200,000 more.
- Chuck (5.9 million, 2.3/6) slid by 700,000.
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (5.6 million, 2.3/6) improved by 200,000.
- A Gossip Girl* repeat (0.8/2) pulled in 1.8 million.

So much for trying to start over again. Although Heroes did its best to bring viewers back, the former NBC hit saw a 25% decline from last year’s premiere. In fact, the show tied its lowest numbers for an original episode to date. The Peacock’s competitors did nicely though. ABC was the most-watched network of the night while CBS had the best demos.
8pm
- Dancing with the Stars (5.3/13 in 18-49) debuted to 21.1 million.
- The Big Bang Theory (3.6/10) returned to 9.4 million; How I Met Your Mother (9.7 million, 4.0/10) did even better.
- A Heroes clip show (2.6/7) had 6 million watching.
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (5.8 million, 2.2/6) was up 300,000.
- Gossip Girl (3.4 million, 1.6/4) took a 300,000 hit.

Here’s a quick look at the casting announcements made recently:
- Nip/Tuck: Now that Eden Lord (AnnaLynne McCord) has moved on to 90210, Dr. Sean McNamara will have to find a new young thing to lust after. Fortunately, he won’t have to go far. For the show’s 6th season, Julian McMahon’s former Charmed co-star, Rose McGowan, will have a four-episode arc as another doctor. She’ll also play another possible love interest of Sean’s. Production on the series begins next week.

America Ferrera Not a Fan of Gossip Girl

Question of the day: If you claim to be friends with someone, does that mean you have to like everything they do?
In a recent interview with Seventeen magazine, actress America Ferrera admitted there were a few shows out there she could probably live without. The 24-year-old star of Ugly Betty and Real Woman Have Curves (great movie, BTW) specifically named programs where true female bonds were sometimes lacking.
“Close, genuine female relationships are not what generally gets depicted in movies and TV shows. Like, if you’re watching The Hills or 90210, all the backstabbing shapes the way we act – you go to school, and you think your job is to find a sworn enemy and be jealous of each other.”
Ferrera then went on to include a show featuring one of her Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants co-stars. “I mean, I love Blake [Lively]; she’s a wonderful friend of mine, but shows like Gossip Girl kind of condition us to be mean.” Ouch!
Could this disinterest in GG be the reason behind Ferrera’s now famous eye rolling video? (You can see that awkward clip after the jump.) Or was the semi-mean comment really a result of her watching too much GG? Oh, the possibilities.

30 Rock Seeking Two Gossip Girls

I believe 30 Rock is now just one guest star away from actually being Saturday Night Live.
In the past week, the series about a fictional sketch comedy show has had a list of names attached to it. First there was the news about Jennifer Aniston’s appearance, then there was buzz about an actual Oprah cameo. Now there’s gossip about Gossip.
It’s being reported that the writer/star of Mean Girls could be tapping into her own mean girl persona. And who better to help Tina Fey with this sweeps stunt than Gossip Girl’s own Leighton Meester and Blake Lively?

90210 Premiere: A Second Opinion

Okay - it’s been 12+ hours now since 90210, and I think I’ve had a proper amount of time to digest that premiere. And while my impressions of the show haven’t changed since last night night, it’s taken me a while to quickly summarize why I was left disappointed:
90210 wants to be what Gossip Girl already is.
After reading a list of reviews today - including the one written by my TV Envy colleague - I felt there was still room to offer an opposing opinion.
In general, most of the critics agreed that the show was much better than feared. I mean - should we have expected more from a show that didn’t offer any previews? No. But should we have expected more from a network that already offers quality catty fare? Yes.
