Zap2it Elite Sheet Must Reads from the Web's In-Crowd
 

Your giving the world series credit for 21.1 million at 7pm for the Fox overrun of the 4pm football game. The baseball game didn't start until almost 8:30.

Bad Night for ABC... time for a fresh lineup.. School Pride at 7, Ugly Betty Classics at 8, Whole Truth at 9, new Dana Delaney show at 10.

World Series vs Sunday Night Football that's a great nighttime battle. Can't wait to see my San Francisco Giants as they're one win away to become champions!

Mickey - seriously? Do you even know what you are talking about? School Pride is on NBC - and dead. Ugly Betty's grave already has grass on it. Whole Truth is on life support. Dana Delaney's new show will most likely take the 10pm Wednesday spot replacing The Whole Truth. I think ABC should be happy it has a consistent line up that usually places it in #2 or #3 without playoff baseball.

NFL over run was at 7pm on FOX, Hahn has got it wrong, guess she is too busy with writting another story aout Britney's tampon.
