THE EPISODE of American Dreams that airs tonight may be the last one ever. After two-and-a-half years of good ratings, more than half of the audience has abandoned it (many of these viewers have migrated to ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition).
NBC wants to keep the show around. Three weeks ago, the network moved it from Sunday to Wednesday, in order to pair it with two other topical dramas, The West Wing and Law & Order. But it now has to compete with ABC’s ratings beast Lost. If fans don’t tune in again, the network says they may have no other choice than to drop American Dreams.
