Take That, NBC, Glee Rules!

Barred from Peacock's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Fox show hits season high, and outrates everything on NBC's Wednesday night in top demos

Payback's a plucky Avril Lavigne cover.

Fox's Glee outrated NBC's Law & Order: SVU among the demographically desirable, and outright outdrew everything else in the Peacock's Wednesday night lineup, preliminary Nielsen estimates show.

The jazz-hand jab came days after NBC pulled the plug on talks to feature the Glee cast in next month's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Fortunately, innocent-bystander SVU didn't suffer any karmic damage. Per usual, between it and Glee, SVU enjoyed the bigger overall audience. Both 9 p.m. shows hit season highs—7.5 million viewers for Glee; 8.8 million for SVU.

CBS' Criminal Minds was the night's most watched show. Which means Joe Mantegna probably won't be getting that invite to sing at NBC's parade, either.
