Nice to see Army Wives back in the top 10. I guess it helped that Burn Notice and Royal Pains were off 1 week.

[Gaff]

NCIS is always on the top of the charts... I don't think I can watch another minute of crime procedural after four Law & Orders, three CSI's, and now two NCIS's....

[Superman07]

No indication of how well the Torchwood mini-series (Children of Earth) on BBCA did? I saw a figure today saying Torchwood (I assume for S1 and S2) pulled on average 500,000 viewers. I believe those had traditionally been on a Saturday night. If that's true I'm surprised that it did not even register for Monday given the amount of attention is seems to have received.

I can only find the ratings for BBC not BBCA.
