If you still watch this trashy show, stop it. Ratings, and sponsors, rule.

I’m proud to say that I have survived without ever seeing an episode of dancing with the stars or American Idol.

I don't watch it as the show has never appealed to me. However, unless one has a Nielsen 'box' to report your viewing habits, what you watch won't effect the ratings of a particular show.
