Ratings: Idol Steady, Neighbors Dips To Low

By Matt Webb Mitovich
DOUG JONES, SIMON TEMPLEMAN, PATRICK O'SULLIVAN THE NEIGHBORS - "Sing Like a Larry Bird" - Increasingly comfortable exploring the world outside of their gated community, the Bird-Kersees ignore the Weavers' concerns and decide to go to into the city to see a Broadway show. Inspired by the experience, Larry decides to put on a musical of his own, which goes well until Dick literally missteps. Instead of going to Marty and Debbie for help (as they have done many times before), the Bird-Kersees risk exposing their true identities when they call 9-1-1, on "The Neighbors," WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13 (8:30-9:00 p.m., ET) on ABC. Academy Award-winning Alan Menken composed original songs for the episode. (ABC/DANNY FELD) DOUG JONES, SIMON TEMPLEMAN, PATRICK O'SULLIVAN
