Dancing With the Stars waltzed away with the ratings crown on an unremarkable Monday night, averaging 20.7 million viewers for Gilles Marini's latest clinic.
Elsewhere, per preliminary Nielsen estimates:
• At 8 p.m., an all-new Gossip Girl (2.4 million) was solid among women 18-34 who'd grown totally tired of reruns.
• At 9 p.m., One Tree Hill (2.4 million) was as big a draw among young women as Heroes (6.4 million), which, granted, was a much bigger draw among young men.
• The more Fox runs Bones (8.4 million), the fewer people tune in.
• DWTS-boosted Surviving Suburbia (10.9 million) topped Rules of Engagement (10.6 million) in the battle of 9:30 p.m. comedies. Rules, however, ruled in the 18-49 demo.
• 24 (10.3 million), Chuck (6 million) and Medium (7.4 million) ran about even, if a bit down, from last week.
• Nathan Fillion's Castle (8.4 million) rebounded from an off week by beefing up by 1 million viewers.
