Nice debut for America's next top model, considering it was up against AI for the first hour.

"Bones" is going to have an awful time getting a Season 2 renewal. Are there any fans of the show here? I saw the first episode, and I recall not being impressed. Has it gotten any better?

I thought Bones was really solid but missed an episode and stopped watching. I would like to see the first season though and hope it gets a second.

Wow, a new episode of Invasion actually lost viewers from a repeat of Lost? Does anybody actually watch this show without watching Lost first?

If there are, I honestly believe the number is close to like 1 million or so
I hate that Lost repeats sink so low

Bones started out poorly but has gotten significantly better as the season's progressed. I hope it gets a renewal.

Invasions 6.7m is basically what Alias has been getting this year in its much tougher Thursday timeslot. It's pretty shocking how quickly Invasion has fizzled. Thats what you get for making a slow, inconsistent and frustrating show though.
I'm really very angry at ABC for doing this. I knew it would happen. I knew Alias would languish on Thursdays and Invasion would fade fast. Instead of having a veteran going into its 6th year on a high and a new medium sized Thursday night filler, they now have two expensive shows dead. Theres no real way Invasion can make a second year with ratings like that already. Horribly thought out scheduling and marketing.
The strong similarities between Invasion and Lost mean people were even more critical after Lost rather than more accepting. A thursday night show would have been pleasing easier.

Invasion is all but canceled. Invasion did worse than The O.C. this week. That is very bad even though The O.C. had American Idol as its lead in.
