Fast Nationals...

If you remember Tuesday's, it was at 6.1.

Last night's show was ranked in 2nd place with a 6.5.

Not bad considering Idol got a 16.0....I do wonder how the 18-49's turned out (we should get the breakdown by show later on today at The Futon Critic, the zap2it article only had the full night's 18-49's)....I think NBC will take that considering what they were up against.

DoND did 3.3 in 18-49, again a comfortable second in the time slot and not bad at all by NBC's usual standards in the demo. Tonight the show gets AI and Survivor, so Nielsen probably won't be serving any seconds (sorry).

By the way, MediaLifeMagazine publishes the fast national 18-49s as soon as they're available. In fact, that site worships The Demo. I'll add my usual grouchy disclaimer: I'm 54.
