There are simply no plans at this time to bring back Lola Glaudini to the show. Case closed.

CRIMINAL MINDS: RATHBONE IS PAYING A VISIT!

Criminal Minds: Jackson Rathbone has his priorities right. Criminal Minds before all else!

"Twilight" star Jackson Rathbone, who was set to appear with his rock band side project 100 Monkeys at 8 p.m. Sunday at diPiazza's Restaurant & Lounge, cancelled the show Friday morning to fly out of state to work on an episode of "Criminal Minds."

The 100 Monkeys show in Long Beach was to have been Rathbone's only all-ages concerts in the Long Beach-L.A. area, and diPiazza's was inundated with calls Thursday after the announcement of the concert was publicized on the band's MySpace page and fan sites.

Rathbone, who plays Jasper Hale in "Twilight," is especially popular among the teenage girl set. According to a spokesperson for the actor, Rathbone and his improv band will play an all-ages show at diPiazza's in early or mid-March.

CRIMINAL MINDS OVERNIGHT RATINGS FOR "SOUL MATES"

Criminal Minds overnight Nielsen ratings info for "Soul Mates" written by Erica Messer and Deb Fisher.

“American Idol” owned the night but Criminal Minds gave them a run for the money and once again pulled in terrific ratings!

"CBS was runner-up for the night, thanks largely to “Criminal Minds” at 9 (14.1 million) and “CSI: NY” at 10 (12.8 million). CBS’s back-to-back comedies, “The New Adventures of Old Christine” (7.3 million) and “Gary Unmarried” (7.1 million), earned fewer viewers but still outpaced their competitors to win the 8 p.m. hour. NBC ranked third for the night with “Knight Rider” at 8 (5.3 million), “Law & Order” at 10 (8.2 million) and a repeat of “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” at 9 (4.5 million). ABC finished fourth with three hours of “Lost” (4.5 million), a rerun of last season’s three-part finale."

CRIMINAL MINDS: IMDB MISTAKE

Criminal Minds: IMDB has listed Lola Glaudini, the former Elle Greenway on Criminal Minds, as being a guest star on the next two upcoming episodes. This is an error and Ms. Glaudini is not in these episodes, nor presently scheduled for any in the future. I confirmed with CBS that this is a mistake.

Per IMDB: "Criminal Minds" .... Elle Greenaway (30 episodes, 2005-2009)
- Bloodline (2009) TV episode .... Elle Greenaway
- Soul Mates (2009) TV episode .... Elle Greenaway

Again, this is INCORRECT!!

CRIMINAL MINDS: HIT US WITH YOUR BEST SHOT & LOSE!

Battleground: Wednesdays at 9 p.m.: ABC's "Lost" vs. Fox's "Lie to Me" vs. CBS' "Criminal Minds"

Analysis: This is a three-way Mexican standoff. Fox's keystone new show against CBS' usual time-period winner -- both crime procedurals -- and then there's ABC's strongly rated "Lost" returning after airing on Thursdays during the writers strike last year. "Lie" has the "Idol" lead-in and boasts a fairly solid pilot, plus the dramas that best maintained an "Idol" lead-in have been the somewhat similar "Bones" and "House." ABC hasn't yet scheduled a lead-in for "Lost," but the show is considered a self-starter.

Likely winner: As a serialized show, "Lost" will drop at least 10%, yet will probably win in the demo. "Lie" could surprise thanks to "Idol." Either way, "Minds" remains a good bet to dominate total viewers. Also, Fox holds a trump card here: The network could swap "Lie" and 8 p.m.'s "American Idol" at any time to protect their new show.
