Back in its regular Tuesday slot, American Idol was the big winner on Tuesday night, beating last Thursday’s results show by 5 million viewers in its second hour. Meanwhile, The Biggest Loser: Couples lost 14 percent of its 8-9 p.m. viewers from last week’s new episode — no doubt because it had to compete with Idol this week. And part 2 of The Bachelor: After the Final Rose lost almost 40 percent of its Monday night audience, but still won the coveted 18-49 age group for its time slot.

Wow, the idol viewership grew a lot after 9. You know what that means. Most likely the contestants who performed after 9 will probably going thru. Thats good news anyways, because Von Smith did not deserve the judges praise. He is horrific!
I only watched “Reaper” last night; it’s good to see it got over 2 million viewers. (For the CW, that’s good, right?)
I wish more people would watch Reaper. It’s so much fun. Pairing it with 90210 opposite American Idol was probably not a wise choice, though. The two shows don’t really fit together well. Now a Reaper and Supernatural pairing, well that’s a perfect match.

I hope no one continues to watch the Bachelor after what transpired on the show. It was the worst type of publicity stunt the producers could have come up with. Shame on ABC.

A Supernatural/Reaper pairing wouldn’t do Reaper any good at all. 80% of Supernatural fans boycott Reaper. They feel, with just cause, that it is a slap in the face to Supernatural. And having the CW try to cram Reaper down the throats of Supernatural fans when it first came out didn’t help matters at all. I’m a fan of Supernatural.
I watched the first 15 minutes of Reaper and was so angry about the obvious Spoof against Supernatural that I turned it off and never tried to watch it again.
JASON IS SUCH A JERK WHY THE HELL WOULD I WATCH THAT AGAIN ? IT WAS SUCH A WASTE OF MY TIME.
OK first of, do NOT compare an awesome show that is Supernatural, to the crap that is Reaper… PLEASE. Secondly, thank god this is about Tuesday night shows because seriously, if those shows were on Thursdays Supernatural would KICK THEIR BUTTS. I don’t like Reaper Much and American Idol and The thingy with the Bachelor are just stupid shows that are programmed to already know who is the winner at the end, I do not watch them THANK GOD! So seriously I really don’t see why they have such high level raiting. Maybe people start cleaning and they just leave the show on so they don’t have to change the channel or something. Well that is my Comment… Thanks!
Pairing Supernatural and Reaper would be a smart move by the CW. It was their original plan in the first place, until they decided to give Smallville more attention. Most viewers don’t care about so-called similarities between the shows, since in reality there really aren’t any. Ooooo, the shows have characters named “Sam”. I can name about 8 other shows that have characters named “Sam” too. They’re both excellent, well-written shows, and Reaper deserves just as much another season as Supernatural does.
