Overnight TV Ratings -- "Grease" Not Picking Up Steam

The reality show "Grease: You're The One That I Want" heads towards it finale next week, but the show is failing to pick up any steam. This doesn't really help or hurt the Broadway revival: that would have to stand or fall on its own since it couldn't really expect more than a month of business from fans who saw the TV series and wanted to see the show. It's down to the final two Dannys and Sandys and I'd vote for Max and Ashley, though all three judges want Max and Laura. It'll be interesting to see if viewers resist their choices. Certainly Austin -- who simply doesn't look like a Danny in any way, shape or form -- didn't look happy after the judges all picked his rival. I glanced at Rob Corddry's "The Winner" but found it unwatchable. The CBS shows ran 45 minutes late; I'm just gonna plop "60 Minutes" into the 8 p.m. slot and so on for the sake of convenience.
