Who needs a turn-off-your-TV movement when we've already got Wednesday night?

Wednesday's ratings continue to translate into bad horrific news for the networks.

ABC's lineup of "Pushing Daisies," "Private Practice" and "Dirty Sexy Money" continued their freefall (well, "Pushing Daisies" held vaguely steady from last week, but last week's ratings were disastrous). The other two shows lost about 20% of their audience from last week.

NBC's "Knight Rider" lost close to a million viewers from last week; if this trend continues, it'll have negative viewers by December. "Lipstick Jungle" had fewer than 5 million.

Fox had a good news/bad news night: "Bones" winning the 8 p.m. hour by a comfortable margin, but tanking at 9 p.m. with two episodes of "'Til Death."

Only CBS can be sanguine about the evening's results: Its 8 p.m. sitcoms were actually up a smidgen from last week, and "Criminal Minds" and "CSI: NY" remain strong.
