CSI: New York earned 11.40 million overall viewers and 3.1/8 in the 18-49 demo on Wednesday.

The battle between CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and Grey's Anatomy continued on Thursday, with the two shows splitting leadership. CSI had a higher viewer count with 17.78 million to Grey's 15.11 million. In the 18-49 demographic, however, Grey's edged ahead with 6.0/15 over the 5.0/13 earned by CSI. Both series were down year-to-year with CSI losing 7% of overall viewers and 11% of the key demo, but Grey's losses were higher (29% in viewers and 34% in 18-49 from the first part of a two-hour episode this time last year).
