Fast National ratings for Monday, Nov. 2, 2010

The 2010 World Series took a small chunk out of "Dancing With the Stars" audience -- but not enough to keep it from easily winning the night for ABC.

"DWTS" 200th episode special helped ABC average 17 million viewers throughout the evening, with a 10.8 rating/17 share in households. FOX bested last week's numbers with 11.4 million and a 6.8/10, edging out third place CBS (10.6 million, 6.5/10). NBC placed fourth (5.4 million, 3.4/5), ahead of the CW (2 million, 1.4/2).

CBS's comedy block helped to tie ABC in adults 18-49, with both networks scoring a 3.6 rating, followed by FOX (3.3), NBC (2.0) and the CW (1.0).

Hummmmmm.... OK Mickey Mouse, sad how its so hard to copy and paste for them!

im being careful what i wish for today.....but i know it will come true...do the right thing in California and especially Nevada,put all your tvs on FOX news for the honest truth...stay away from oberman (what a class act) and chuck might have its last season!

Yeah! The San Francisco Giants are World Champions!

I find it funny how a SNL ladies night edition got about the same amount viewers. 5.6 mill for SNL, 6.0 for the Event. I thought NBC said the Event was this HUGE hit? I guess not

Very happy to see San Francisco Giants winning the World Series as champions since 1954 guess I wasn't born at the time. The Women of SNL special was very funny but some of my faves were Molly Shannon, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Casey Wilson (who was dumped because of her weight) and Abby Elliott these funny girls rule.

I can see why Chuck increased! The show is doing really well..

Sad how Mickey Mouse try to understat ABC's huge win by calling the World Series a "rerun." Haha lol, porr thin. Cant wait for Sillyvester = Trollhunter = banmeister to get on and dribble their usual nonsense. Now off to voting.

Charles just to be clear Keith Oberman is a racist aginst white people

how sad is m eow with the Micky Mouse coments , oh wait, does the mouse own abc, so maybe she is right, abc is a micky mouse network

cbs is great
