Thursday's Ratings: Fox Traps Young Demo with Dance, Lyrics

So You Think You Can Dance by Kelsey McNeal/Fox
Stop me if you've heard this one. On Thursday, Fox's So You Think You Can Dance came in first in the 18-49 demo, with a 3.3 rating. Don't Forget the Lyrics came in second with a 3.0 rating in that age group. CBS' lineup brought up the rear, with Big Brother 8 (2.7, third in the demo), CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2.6, fourth in the demo) and Shark (2.1, fifth in the demo). Because, really, what says "young" and "hip" and "now" like cranky ol' James Woods?

Hey Matt, Have you seen any numbers for Kyle XY lately and also how Greek is doing after it? I hope it's keeping most of Kyle's audience because I'd really like another season.

Is there a website where I can look this stuff up myself and not have to bother you with it?

Well, my husband and I are both in that prized 18-34 year old demographic that is so important and we didn't miss a single episode of Shark last year. We loved the show, at least we loved it until the last episode kind of gave new meaning to jump the shark.

To be honest though, we probably would have never started watching the show if I hadn't been a big Sam Page fan from his days on All My CHildren. But we really enjoyed 21 episodes. Now that he's gone and they've changed it from Thursday nights(it was a great follow-up for Grey's Anatomy) I don't know if we'll watch as much, or at all, this year, but we did like it and we're young, although probably not as hip since we've had children.
