>CBS Monday was down week to week (from a 4.3 last week to a 4.0 last night) but still 10% ahead of the same night last year and #1 last night by a mile. The other three networks were down from the same night last year, and remember that ABC’s 2.8 for the night will probably go down to a 2.7 or so because of major-market pre-emptions for NFL football. Program details follow.

CBS Monday was down four tenths of a rating point from last week (from a 4.3 from 8-11 pm last week to a 4.0 last night), with some shows at Halloween night levels. Still, CBS won the night handily and turned in a performance 10% above the same night last November.

ABC’s Dancing with the Stars is looking good in the preliminary fast nationals at a 3.6, but that will probably go down to a 3.5 at least because of pre-emptions in Boston and Kansas City for Monday Night Football. The game show You Deserve It premiered to a dreadful 2.1 rating at 9 pm (probably a 1.9 or 2.0 in the official nationals). Castle will probably be a 2.5 in the official nationals, not bad considering the horrible lead in from the new game show.

Terra Nova took a big step backward to a 2.1, the season low last seen on Halloween. It’s pretty much done as a show. House also continues to bumble along at a 2.5.

The Sing-Off ticked up one tenth from last week as the show races towards its conclusion. Meanwhile, Rock Center set a series low, a 0.9 rating. By half hour, the numbers are especially grim for the news magazine which will become the Wednesday at 9 pm program (leading into SVU): at 9:30 the final segment of Sing-Off built to a 1.5, then at 10:00 the first half of Rock dropped to a 1.0, and by 10:30 Rock hit bottom at a 0.8 rating, directly leading into late local newscasts.
