DST: Are People Finally Adjusting?

The ratings for Wednesday and Thursday has showed little change compared to last week. Looking at how DST wrecked havoic on Monday and Tuesday, are people finally adjusting to DST? Hard to say. First, here are the ratings for:

Thursday

Wednesday saw no noticeable changes compared to last week. CBS and ABC were mostly in repeats so it's hard to gauge the effect of DST. Same goes for Thursday. CBS was not airing its original programming because of March Madness, and FOX was in repeats as well.

NBC saw no noticeable changes at 8pm.

The return of FlashForward on ABC was uneventful. Averaging a 1.9 in the demo will certainly get the show canceled. That's too bad, because the show had an intriguing premise. Execution was a problem. It seems like they're hitting their strides the last couple of episodes, but that may be too late.
