Ratings: American Idol dominates Tuesday night

American Idol ratings were actually up from last week and up slightly from the Season 8 Top 11 show last year. 25 million viewers watched the last 30 minutes of the show last night.

From TVbytheNumbers:

American Idol was up 2% from last Tuesday (and 1% from the comparable show last season) to a night dominating 8.3 adults 18-49 rating, more than the other four English language networks combined on the night. For Idol fans (or haters) keeping track at home, the show is down just 5% in adults 18-49 ratings on a season to date basis.

ABC’s Lost was up a tenth of a point to a 3.9 adults 18-49 rating vs. last week, but since it overran 6 minutes into the 10pm hour, the final ratings will be likely revising that number upwards. On the flipside, the special V clip show’s 1.9 rating will likely be revised downwards.
