Yeah yeah, nobody is surprised that American Idol topped the night last night in ratings!

The surprise comes from Mobbed, who's rating saw a spike — and ended up giving Fox the night's win.

Fox averaged a 4.5 among adults 18-49 which is about 14 million people. Idol grabbed a 6.0 in the demo, and the total viewers were up by 2 percent. Mobbed got a 3.0!

ABC was second with 8.4 million viewers, and leading the pack there was the brilliant Modern Family with a 5.5.

Then came CBS, which saw a dip in ratings — even with the ever popular CSI.

And then the CW… who somehow survives with shows getting 0.7 and 0.4 — not sure how that's working out, but they're trying.

Either way, Idol's Hollywood Week seems to be when people REALLY start watching!

What did U watch last night??

Well, it's a good thing that Steven Spielberg also has Smash!

The famous director is serving as exeutive producer on the new musical series, as well the midseason replacement ABC horror show The River, but apparently, the ratings for the latter's two-hour series premiere last night were less than stellar!

The series managed to garner around 8.2 million viewers and

Take her name off the marquee — New York's sweetheart is heading to La La Land!

It's been confirmed that ABC Family has picked up the Sutton Foster–led drama Bunheads, created by Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman Palladino. The show will feature Sutton as a former Las Vegas showgirl named Delores Van-Cartier who leaves the glitz of the strip to work as her her mother-in-law's small-town dance studio.

As this marks Sutton's first major stint on television, we're nothing but happy for her, but we're sure the bright lights of Broadway are going to miss her terribly!

Enjoy this girl — but come back to the Great White Way soon!!

How hilarious would it be if he actually set up his endorsement pick… and it ended up being for himself??

Stephen Colbert's mind would blow in an instant! Ha!

Apparently, as if anybody actually cares or if it matters who Donald Trump endorses, CNN, ABC, and the NYTimes are all saying he's going to back Romney.

This is would only be surprising if Romney then announced Donald as his VP or something!

There HAD been rumblings that he'd go the Newt route, but who could blame him for not going down THAT road?

Actually, we're not sure how anyone could make the decision for one or the other… because both candidates are just such flawless choices that are clearly on top of their political game.

Sarcasm, folks. Ha!

Do U care who he chooses??

The Evil Queen's mother!

Ah! Time to see if the poisoned apple didn't fall to far from the tree!

She's probably known best to all of you for her role in Black Swan, but Barbara Hershey is an icon in her own right. That's why, we were thrilled to hear that the Academy Award nominee has been asked to guest star on the new hit ABC show Once Upon a Time this season.

She will be playing the role of

And we're back to the start!

When Revenge kicked off in September, audiences were shown a chilling scene in which a murder was committed on the beach outside the engagement party of Daniel Grayson and Emily Thorne. We knew so little then of how things would get to that point in the Hamptons and what role each person at that party would play in this murder.

Now, the pilot's flash-fowards have become the present and soon, we'll learn the truth: was Daniel really murdered? While these pictures won't exactly confirm or deny that suspicion, we can see that he's alive for at least part of the evening! But how will the party end???

BTW, if you're not watching this show, you are missing out on this generations Dallas. Seriously, it is that soapy and great!
