MAY SWEEPS UPSET: ABC DANCE SHOW BEATS ‘IDOL’ IN OVERNIGHTS
Wed May 23 2007 09:08:03 ET
FOX and wunderkind Simon Fuller hit with a historic TV upset Tuesday night — after ABC’s ‘DANCING WITH THE STARS’ competition pulled in higher ratings than ‘AMERICAN IDOL’!
DANCING scored a 16.5 rating/25 share to IDOL 16.3/25, in what network insiders are calling a ‘photo-finish’.
“Our results show is tonight,” explains an confident FOX executive, “we’ll see who is left standing on the stage.”
The upset comes as the nation’s top-rated show experienced viewership erosion late in the season, at one point, falling more than 15% from a year ago.
DANCING easily topped the night in the nation’s top cities, pulling a 32 share peak in Chicago and 33 peak in Philly.
