• Airing opposite the second half-hour of FOX's reality series "Boot Camp" ABC's "What About Joan" slipped to its lowest marks in three tries (11.05 million viewers, 4.7/12 in adults 18-49) but still looks pretty strong, given the tougher-than-usual competition. The series retained 96 percent of its "Dharma & Greg" adults 18-49 lead-in after building on the veteran comedy in its first two tries. [edit]
• "What About Joan"'s rating decrease continues this week. The show received a 8.3/12 Nielson rating, down from "Dharma & Greg"'s 8.9/13 - although, an 8.3 is a good rating the decrease shows signs of possibly hurting the show in the future... [edit]
• Joan's hair is noticably different from the previous two episodes, this is due to the fact "The Proposal" was shot as the sixth episode and ABC did not it in its original production order. Personally, I believe her hair in this episode suits her better. [edit]
