Fox has , apparently , declared war on ABC ’s Lost … by permanently movingAmerican Idolopposite for the rest of the season . But what consequence will this have on the island dramatic event , and what ’s behind the move ?
drop off ’s audience has been slowly dropping since its return , and last week ’s two - hour installment of Fox ’s Idol made that drop even sharp … but , concord to the Hollywood Reporter , Fox ’s decision to push Idol to 9 pm on Wednesdays is actually more a defensive manoeuvre than it ab initio seems , protecting their raw dramaLie To Me(starring the Abomination himself , Tim Roth ) from lose audiences to Lost . Any confirmatory equipment casualty to ABC ’s flagship play is purely simultaneous … and a very happy accident .
ABC , on the other hand , are likely to see things the same fashion ; with Life on Mars continuing to fall in the ratings , do n’t be too surprised if the electronic web announces that Lost will be returning to a safer 10 postmortem timeslot within the next few workweek .
