American Idol saw a 12 percent boost as it moved to Hollywood, and had the most viewers (27.7 million) it has had since the January premiere. How much of that is Hollywood Week and how much of that was Ellen? Still versus the first night of Hollywood Week last year (Feb 3, 2009) Idol was up +1% in Adults 18-49, +4% in Total Viewers and +8% among Teens.
Past Life’s best days are already behind it and last night was its premiere. It averaged a 3.1 rating with adults 18-49 and 9 million viewers.
Lost dropped 11 percent from the premiere to a 4.9 rating with adults 18-49, still pretty decent retention from the premiere for a show in its sixth (and final) season. The Forgotten had its best outing in a while in the post-lost slot with a 2.0 adults 18-49 rating.
