Here are last nights ratings.
Over on ABC, Scrubs (1.9/6) outperformed Better Off Ted (1.8/5) and Lost (4.2/10) came in second to American Idol (8.1/20) at 9pm. Although Lost went head-to-head with American Idol, it was the second most-watched program with adults 18-49 for the night.

And here's ABC's spin on the numbers.
"Lost" (9:00-10:00 p.m.)
Surging from its lead-in opposite Fox's "American Idol" in the 9 o'clock hour, ABC's "Lost" held wide advantages over its drama competition in the slot among Adults 18-49. "Lost" (4.2/10) bested CBS' "Criminal Minds" replay by 83% (2.3/6) and NBC's original "Life" by 200% (1.4/3). In addition, "Lost" registered its 10th straight original broadcast as Wednesday's No. 1 scripted TV show in Adults 18-49. The ABC drama was also once again the night's top-rated scripted series in the other two Adult demographics: Adults 18-34 (4.0/10) and Adults 25-54 (4.4/10).
