From Marc Berman at the Programming Insider:
and The CW’s Supernatural (Viewers: #5, 3.32 million; A18-49: #5, 1.4/ 3). Although Trading Spouses was, of course, a much bigger draw, retention out of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader of just 53 percent in viewers and 62 percent among adults 18-49 lands it in the loser’s circle. Supernatural’s retention out of Smallville was considerably stronger at 85 percent in viewers and 93 percent among adults 18-49.
Half hour breakdown:
9:00 p.m. V: 3.53 million, A18-49: 1.4/ 4
9:30 p.m. V: 3.16 million, A18-49: 1.3/ 3
For comparison:
Smallville: 3.93 million
Top Model: 3.82 million
Gilmore Girls: 3.74 million
Pussycat Dolls: 3.49 million
Everybody Hates Chris: 3.01 million
The Game: 2.51 million
Girlfriends: 2.40 million
All of Us: 2.40 million
And again, Veronica Mars and One Tree Hill were not on.
