TV Ratings: 'CSI' backdoor pilot steady, 'American Idol,' 'Modern Family' down

TV ratings on Wednesday night saw little growth, with shows either remaining steady in comparison with recent episodes or losing ground.

CBS won the night with a 2.1 in the 18-49 demographic and 9.92 million viewers. Both Survivor and Criminal Minds were down slightly to a 2.3 and 2.2 rating, respectively, reports HitFix. The Patricia Arquette CSI backdoor pilot was steady with a 1.8 in the demo, not impressive, but not bad either.

Despite struggling on the night, Fox still managed to take second place. Lone show of the night American Idol fell to a performance episode low with a 1.8 in the demo and 8.6 million viewers.

ABC took the biggest stumble of the night, with all new episodes dipping a bit in the ratings, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The network took in a 1.6 in the 18-49 demo and 5.5 million viewers. The Middle slid slightly to a 1.8 demo rating, while Suburgatory was down to a 1.4 in the demo. Modern Family fell quite a bit, down to a 2.8 rating. Freshman comedy Mixology dropped to a 1.3 in the demo.

NBC averaged a 1.7 in the demo and 6 million viewers, though numbers could change as some areas aired the end of an NBA playoff game. Revolution remained even with a 1.4 demo rating, while Law & Order: SVU dipped to a 1.8 in the demo. Chicago PD was one of the lone shows to see any improvement, up to a 1.9 rating.

The CW took in a 0.7 in the demo and 2.08 million viewers. Arrow was up slightly to a 0.8, while The 100 remained steady with a 0.6 rating.
