“Craving” Ratings

Fox’s 24 rose a very little bit, but still didn’t do too much better in the overnight ratings last night up against Smallville.

24 took a 5.9/9 vs. Smallville’s 5.9/8. (Whatever that final number means). Both series showed a rise over last week. Roswell, of course, remains at dead last. (Whatever happened to the fall of Smallville and the rise of Roswell, Ronald D. Moore?)

Tuesday night’s episode gave Smallville its best ratings since its debut in the demographics of Households, Men 12-34, Adults 18-34, Men 18-34, Adults 18-49, and Men 18-49. It also captured its best ratings for the season among Persons 12-34, Females 12-34, Teens, and Female Teens.
