DOWN: For the first four rounds of auditions, the Fox singing competition series stayed fairly steady between 6.4 and 6.9 million viewers. Still sort of respectable, right? Well, the October 29th episode, which aired on a Tuesday due to baseball coverage, was down to 4.9 million and was trounced by NBC's The Voice (11.62 million), which it doesn't usually compete against. The Halloween episode dropped even further to 3.25 million. That's um, CW numbers. X Factor also suffered an embarrassing voting glitch, which might further turn off viewers.
