The rest of the field: CBS with 11.3 million, ABC with 7.6 million, NBC with 6.

7 million and The CW with 4.5 million.
CBS edged to victory at 8 p.

m. with Jericho drawing 8.2 million.

Fox's 'Till Death ended its season with back-to-back episodes scoring 7 million and 8.6 million. ABC's comedies came next: Two episodes of George Lopez drew 6.

5 million and 6.4 million.
NBC's wonderful Friday Night Lights concluded its season with 6.

3 million. The CW proved its potency with America's Next Top Model attracting 5.6 million.


At 9 p.m., CBS' Criminal Minds was the closest competitor to Idol.

The Mandy Patinkin drama fascinated 12.8 million. NBC's Crossing Jordan was the ticket for 6.

2 million.
At 10 p.m.

, CSI: NY was the choice of 12. 7 million. ABC's Lost found just 11.

9 million viewers. And a pity: Those revelations about mysterious Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell) were creepy. What danger hangs over the crash survivors?

(Oh, I realize a lot of you lost interest. Sorry.) Medium was medium in the ratings with just 7.

6 million.
In the all-important 18-to-49 age group, Fox cleaned up. The rest of that field: CBS and ABC tied for second, then came The CW.
