On Thursday night, FOX aired a two hour season finale of The X-Factor. It was up a nice 2.7 million viewers and nine tenths in the demo. This was a strong finale showing given that it was on December 22. FOX will bring The X-Factor back for a second season next fall. Over on NBC, the final night of the week-long airings of Who's Still Standing posted similar numbers to the first night. All in all, the ratings weren't terrible given the week and the network and it wouldn't be surprising to see it come back next December. At 10pm, the last scheduled airing of Prime Suspect was up seven tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo.
