A typically extra-twisted Matthew Gray Gubler-helmed episode of Criminal Minds this week drew 10.4 million total viewers and a 2.5 demo rating, rising three tenths from its last fresh outing to — if the numbers hold — best American Idol for the first time ever in head-to-head competition. Alas, I have no picture for that episode, because, well, there simply aren’t any.

Opening the Eye’s night, Survivor (9.6 mil/2.2) dipped a tenth to a season low, while at 10 pm CSI (9.7 mil/1.9) also was down a tenth.
