Eight Is Enough for Ratings: Octomom Scores Big!

Tuesday TV's Biggest Mother of Them All? Why, Nadya Suleman, of course. The Dateline franchise scored nearly twice its usual audience (11.3 million, per Nielsen estimates, versus 6.1 million) for Ann Curry's sit-down with the California octuplets' maternal unit.
If Mark Harmon Flaps His Wings in the Forest, Does a Storm Strike Fox? Can't say. But when NCIS (18 million) returns with a new episode, American Idol (night-best 24.5 million) slips just a bit. A new Mentalist (19.7 million) seemingly had the same depressing effect on Fringe (10.5 million).
Fat City: The Biggest Loser likewise was down from last week (9.3 million versus 10.3 million), but in the competitive 9 p.m. hour it pulled off a win in the 18-49 demo over Fringe, The Mentalist and, less surprising, the stomped-down Scrubs (4.4 million overall viewers).
Etc.: 90210 (2.4 million) and Privileged (1.5 million) were about even with last week.
