The Nine loses its timeslot on ABC after losing Lost lead-in
It is tough to be a series when over half of your viewers have stuck around simply because they watched the series that airs right before yours. And that is the case with The Nine which has seen its previously decent viewership of 18 million during the Lost heyday earlier this season to just over half of that now that Lost is on hiatus.
ABC is planning to air an episode of 20/20 this Wednesday instead of The Nine, a series which revolves around a large cast who all survived a hostage standoff during a bank robbery. ABC has not said when the series would return, but chances are good they will save it until Lost is back on the air, and return The Nine to its previous timeslot. That is, if another megahit doesn’t take over its timeslot.
