Lie To Me Scoop

Due to the Baseball game running over, the numbers for last night are a little sketchy. According to James Hibberd of thrfeed.com, House and Lie to Me’s numbers won’t be accurate until this afternoon. So check back for updated info. Even then, however, they’re not expected to be completely accurate/meaningful since Baseball turned them into a bit of a “mess”, as TV by the Numbers’ Robert Seidman worded it. But, for now, here’s the info:

UPDATE: From James Hibberd of thrfeed.com: “On second-place Fox, sports lead-ins typically boost primetime shows, but not when its ALCS baseball going into a hit drama like “House” (11.7 million, 4.5). Pushed to a late start, “House” was down 13%. “Lie to Me” (7.8 million, 2.9) was up a tenth despite being displaced.”
