American Idol Ratings Stay Steady as Big Bang Returns

American Idol ratings stay even with Wednesday and last Thursday. This, despite airing against fresh episodes of The Big Bang Theory this week. Not bad. Idol didn’t lead the night as it did last week. Big Bang;s 3.7 beat everything else by a wide margin and also provided a solid lead in for Life in Pieces which tied with American Idol in the demo (but attracted more viewers).
