"Gossip Girl," "One Tree Hill" Lift CW To Best Monday Ever

Hollywood Reporter:

The perpetual fifth-wheel network is starting to look like a big-league player on Monday nights.

The CW had its highest-rated Monday in the network's history as "Gossip Girl" hit another series high and "One Tree Hill" delivered its strongest number in nearly two years.

The third episode of "Gossip" this season (3.7 million viewers, 2.0 rating/5 share in adults 18-49) was up 18% from its previous two episodes. The stronger lead-in boosted the veteran "Tree" (3.4 million, 1.8/4) at 9 p.m., and the gains put the CW into second place among broadcast networks for the evening.

I saw Alec Baldwin, one of the great minds of the religious right, going off on Gossip Girl at one of those evan-trilliquist meetings that was broadcast on C-Span Friday evening. He seems to think its liberals that are watching the show. I, being a liberal, tried watching it. It seems to me that its directed at the suburban teens. Aren't those suburbs pretty much dominated by Republicans?
