Nice find, Lancer.

Decision to sell the Sunday primetime block is an acknowledgement that the night has been a tough one for the CW - and before that, the WB, which also struggled to gain ratings traction there.

This part shows that the CW's moving Aliens to Sunday nights was their way of saying that the show was a bust in their eyes -- and that's a shame. The writing on the wall began on October 21, 2007, after three episodes -- the CW added Aliens on Sunday night as well as Monday. I never thought that moving to Sundays was a good move. I thought it was a prelude to it being a permanent spot/main spot, which did happen. January 28, 2008 was the last Monday night that Aliens aired and it was strictly Sunday nights from then on. The CWs plans for Aliens was etched in stone on that day forward. Alas.
