FOX Sees Week Over Week Gains While Other Nets Decline

Solid performances by returning shows HOUSE and GLEE, the HELL'S KITCHEN milestone 100th episode and newcomer RAISING HOPE, along with week over week growth on its Thursday night gave FOX a very close No. 2 finish (2.6/8 vs. CBS' 2.7/8) among Adults 18-49 and a weekly win among Adults 18-34 and Teens. FOX ranks second among Adults 18-49 so far this Fall.
