'Amy,' 'Blue' locked in a numbers battle

New York Post - February 2, 2001

THE STARR REPORT
By MICHAEL STARR

There's an interesting Tuesday-night race going on between "Judging Amy" and "NYPD Blue" - just as both shows are featuring romances going in opposite directions.

Tuesday's "Amy" beat "Blue" in total households (10.3 million to 9.6 million) - yet "Blue" snagged more viewers (14 million to "Amy's" 13.6 million). Don't ask.

On "Blue," Russell (Kim Delaney) and Sorenson (Rick Schroder) have cooled their romance. But over on "Amy," Amy (Amy Brenneman) has romanced not only her daughter's karate instructor, but now past love Tom Gillette (Gregory Harrison). Not bad, considering Brenneman is pregnant and due in March.
