Spotted Ratings, Thursday 3/31/11


WHAT MATTERS:
  • Howie Mandel-hosted reality special Mobbed pulled an impressive 3.8 demo. That marks the best post-Idol retention for anything this season, and in raw numbers it's better than all but one post-Idol airing this season (Bones on 1/27/11). The performance was good enough for Fox to greenlight an eight-episode series order for the show this afternoon.
  • The other standout on the evening was the musical episode of Grey's Anatomy, which pulled its second-best numbers this season and best since premiere week back on 9/23/10. It tied premiere Thursday's Big Bang Theory for the second-biggest showing by any scripted episode on Thursday this season, and it's in the top ten scripted performances by anything this season. Yes, there was a stunt, but this is a big-time showing for a late-March episode.
