âHollywood Weekâ on âAmerican Idolâ had a promising start on Tuesday as a two-hour edition of that Fox talent competition trounced its competitors in the ratings, drawing 29.9 million viewers, according to Nielsenâs estimates. Although Tuesdayâs âIdolâ audience grew by 2 million compared with last weekâs, the first installment of âHollywood Weekâ last year attracted 31.2 million viewers. Trailing far behind Fox in the nightâs ratings, CBS drew the second most viewers, earning a solid 11.7 million at 8 p.m. for a rerun of âNCIS.â Later in the night, however, a more modest 7.3 million viewers tuned in at 9 for the premiere of âBig Brother: âTil Death Do You Part,â the first winter edition of that CBS summer mainstay. At 10 the second season debut of âJerichoâ attracted 7.2 million viewers, tying ABCâs âBoston Legal,â but trailing a repeat of NBCâs âLaw & Order: Special Victims Unitâ (8.3 million). NBC finished third for the night while edging past CBS for second place among adults 18 to 49 thanks to âThe Biggest Loser,â from 8 to 10 (7.5 million). ABC was a distant fourth overall.
