Thursday ratings

Just to update how Thursday night's 7 p.m. logjam turned out: Idol won the hour with 23.1 million viewers, followed by the Olympics with 17.7 million and then a tie between "Survivor" and "Dancing with the Stars" at 14.8 million.

The Olympics did much better later at night, once the medal contenders in the women's figure skating took to the ice. "Dancing" picked up steam after "Idol" signed off, too.
