Not of huge concern since not many people are fans of both.

What matters actually is profitability, case and point Leno's 10 pm show, which had crap ratings but was making NBC money. Also Heroes, which is fighting for the worst ratings of any primetime drama, but is still on the air because it makes money through syndication, DVD sales, and international deals. Ratings ≠ profit.
