It’s heartening after all these years that over 11 million still will turn into watch It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown - still sporting one of my favorite lines in the entire history of television, “I got a rock.”
House, which I’ve watched about 35 episodes of in the last week is killing in the youth demo. CBS has way more viewers than NBC, but for the night, they tied in the 18-49 demo, and that’s with NBC airing a rerun of Law & Order: SVU (a Gorman favorite) allowing Boston Legal (another Seidman favorite) to capture a rare timeslot win. On to the shows:
