- Ouch for FOX: Bones and Justice, not looking good.
- Rachel Ray's afternoon show's ratings: (Monday-Wednesday respectively) - 2.8/9, 2.9/10, 2.4/8

Wow. I am absolutely stunned at the # of viewers Dancing with the Stars gets.

Justice got beat by a CW show. That can't be good.

Good numbers for the second season premiere of Criminal Minds. :up:

I'm not sure how Criminal Minds got higher rating than Jericho, Criminal Minds was terrible! The only good part about the show is that George Bluth's nipple tweaking FBI agent played a minor part, all the other acting was just awful!

I disagree with you. Even against Lost last year, this show has posted good numbers. I like the cast and the chemistry that they share. The writing is sometimes suspect but for the most part is okay. In regards to Jericho, I have posted my thoughts on the show's thread.

Me too. Those viewers should be shot.

Really sad about Bones. Justice sucks, but Bones has been a can't miss for me.

Guess I'm in the minority here, but I'm kinda into Justice (though the young lead lawyer actor sucks big time). I like the concept, the style of the show and of course the Warren Zevon theme music. If it were on CBS, with all it's procedural bretherin, it would have been a hit, IMO. Guess I shouldn't get too attached to it now...

I like Justice also and I am surprised it is not doing better. I was thinking that Fox should move it after House instead of Standoff, I think it would have a better chance.

Once Lost comes back it is really going to be toast.

But then the Fox schedule will get bumped for the baseball playoffs, so we may not see the show ever again after next week on Fox...

Absolutely. While last night's conclusion episode was not very good as compared to the 1st part as a season finale last season, it still was better than most of the stuff on now.

Notes:
- Wow, Grey's Anatomy won the first battle, surprising results to me.
- Good opening for Shark; decent for Six Degrees even though that one had a dip of 26% in viewers for its second half-hour (vs. Shark's modest 6%)
- If you haven't already noticed, I've highlighted some of the more interesting ratings...

Wow. CSI just got dethroned.

At least for one week.

Heard viewers in Canada got the see the 2nd episode of Grey's Anatomy instead of the first! :lol:

Kinda surprised to see Grey's Anatomy beat CSI.

There is also a big drop between 7th place and 8th place.

Come on people The Office is in 9th place while garbage like Deal or no Deal and Survivor are beating it, start watching The Office people.

I don't know about that. I looked at last year's week 1 to week 2 drops, Grey's dipped 5% and CSI 4%, so looking at the viewership, even if GA dropped 8% (which I doubt), that still gives them around 23m to CSI's (using 4%) 21m. Unless people watching felt it was overhyped, I can't see Grey's Anatomy losing that much ground. Now, throughout the season, it'll be interesting to see how much hold it retains.

Yeah, I agree. I think that Grey's will be able to beat out CSI again this week, just based on the past week's performance. I was surprised to see that they were able to pull it off, but I for one am a happy Grey's fan!

- Retention for Help Me Help You was just 62% out of the last half hour of Dancing with the Stars...
- Retention for Standoff was only 55% out of House.
- Smith lost 14% and 1.43m viewers versus the premiere last week. It also lost 10% in its last half hour and 0.93m viewers. Not good.
- Gilmore Girls premiere was -26% compared to one year ago on The WB.

I cannot believe how many views Dancing With The Stars gets. I want them all dead. :grunt:
