On Thursday, ABC was all new with week two of summer music competition Duets. It was down nine tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo from last week's disappointing premiere. It's not the next American Idol or The Voice. At 10pm, Rookie Blue was down just four tenths and even in the demo from last week's season premiere. The only other new programming was the final two episodes of the season of Touch which hit series lows. I wouldn't be surprised to see it dip even further on Fridays in the fall.
