The franchise aired two new episodes, and both came out on top.

On Monday, the repeat episode of CSI: Miami (9.14 million overall viewers) took third place in the 10:00pm hour behind the National Championship Bowl Game (21.58 million) and the season premiere of Medium (9.57 million). Miami came in fourth in the vital 18-49 demographic with a 2.8 rating/5 share.

CSI: New York aired a new episode on Wednesday and narrowly maintained the top spot against Law and Order. New York pulled in 11.59 million viewers compared to Law's 11.05 million. CSI: NY also ruled the 18-49 demo for the hour with 3.5/10 to Law and Order's 3.2/9. The margin between the shows was slim, and New York's ratings were a season low for the series.

Thursday found CSI: Crime Scene Investigation dominating the 9:00pm timeslot in overall viewers but coming up short in the 18-49 demographic. CSI got 18.13 million viewers for the final episode completed before the writers' strike began. The competition, Grey's Anatomy, pulled in 17.57 million.
