While other veteran shows are seeing year-to-year decreases due to everything from digital video recorders to greater new media competition, Fox’s Tuesday lineup is having no such problem.

“House” and “Bones” continue to see double-digit year-to-year growth in adults 18-49, and last night the pair combined for yet another winning Tuesday.

“House” averaged a 7.7 in adults 18-49, according to Nielsen overnights, up 10 percent over last week. Season to date, the show is averaging a 7.9 rating, up 18 percent over this time last year.

The show dominated its timeslot, more than doubling No. 2 “Dancing with the Stars” at 9 p.m.

While “Bones” finished second in its 8 p.m. slot behind CBS’s “NCIS,” it also saw gains from last week, up 13 percent from a 3.2 to a season-high 3.6. Season to date, the show is averaging a 3.5 rating, up 21 percent from last year in the demo.

That helped Fox finish far ahead of the competition Tuesday, the sixth night of sweeps. Fox led the night among viewers 18-49 with a 5.6 average overnight rating and a 14 share. NBC was second at 3.6/9, CBS third at 3.0/8, ABC fourth at 2.8/7, Univision fifth at 1.7/4 and CW sixth at 1.1/3.
