American Idol and Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains were the top two shows Wednesday, winning the 9 p.m. and 8 p.m. hours respectively. Law & Order: SVU took the 10 p.m. hour against a very special episode of Ugly Betty — the braces finally came off.

Epic night for boring TV. Bring on the NCAA Tournament!
SVU appears to be recovering from its banishment to the 9 PM timeslot.
I can’t believe trash like Survivor & AI win their time periods. Human Target is the #1 show on Wed night both acting & story wise.
seems that all shows are now reality shows – Law and Order too – ” Ripped from the Headlines ” – WHATEVER -
