LOSERS

"Pushing Daisies." ABC hoped the struggling sitcom would benefit from the lack of scripted competition Wednesdays at 8. Instead, it got beat by Obamamercial on NBC, Obamamercial on ABC and even Obamamercial on Fox.

"Heroes." The NBC drama suffered a series low of 8.2 million viewers. NBC sacked two writer-producers, and creator Tim Kring promised, too late, to simplify the mess "Heroes" has become.

CW Sunday. CW's Outsourced Sunday is sinking fast: Two of its "on hiatus" series, "Valentine" and "Easy Money," were reclassified as "dead."

"Law & Order: SVU." For the third week in a row and the fourth time in five weeks this season, "SVU" suffered a series low against CBS's moved-to-Tuesday "Without a Trace."

The week's 10 most watched programs: Fox's Wednesday World Series Game 5 Part Deux; CBS's "CSI"; ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" and "Dancing" results show; CBS's "NCIS"; NBC's "Sunday Night Football"; CBS's "The Mentalist"; ABC's "Desperate Housewives" and "Grey's Anatomy"; and CBS's "60 Minutes."
