A rerun-free Thursday night went to Fox with the season's second outing of American Idol.
The show dropped 20 percent from its Wednesday premiere, and 28 percent from its first Thursday broadcast last season. Still, it pulled a 5.6 among adults 18-49, making it night's highest rated program. Idol also pushed freshman drama The Finder up 29 percent from its lackluster debut. The series netted a 2.2 rating in the key demo, giving the network an average 3.9 in 18-49-ers for the night and 12.3 million viewers.
CBS nabbed second for the night, grabbing a 3.5 rating among adults 18-49 and 14 million viewers. The Big Bang Theory, steady at a 5.2, actually topped American Idol during its half-hour. The second episode of Rob scored a 3.6, marking only a 12 percent drop for its handsome premiere. Person of Interest hit a series high in adults 18-49 with a 3.3 rating, followed by a rising Mentalist, which brought in a 2.9 in adults.
