Ratings Round-Up

As the number of completed episodes dwindles for the CSI franchise, all three shows come out on top with new offerings.

On Monday, CSI: Miami continued to dominate the 10:00pm timeslot with 14.09 million viewers overall. The competition, Journeyman (5.56 million) and October Road (5.19 million), could not achieve totals that came anywhere close to Miami. In the vital 18-49 demographic, Miami pulled in a 3.9 rating/11 share, easily beating out the other shows in the timeslot.

CSI: New York took first place on Wednesday at 10:00pm. New York had 14.26 million viewers in the first half-hour, dropping slightly to 14.24 at 10:30pm. NBC aired Dateline instead of the usual Life, and the news program pulled in the second place spot with 9.13 million viewers (dropping to 8.32 at the half-hour). CSI: NY also dominated the 18-49 demographic for the hour with 3.9/11, growing to 4.1/12 at the half-hour. Dateline dropped from a 2.8 rating to a 2.6 rating at 10:30pm, but the share remained at 8.

Thursday found CSI: Crime Scene Investigation at the top of the ratings pile with 19.79 million viewers at 9:00pm. The usual competition, Grey's Anatomy, ran a repeat and only pulled in 7.18 million viewers. This time, the second place spot went to Fox's Don't Forget the Lyrics, which had 7.53 million viewers. In the 18-49 demographic, it's no surprise that CSI came out on top with 6.1/16 for the hour. Lyrics tied with NBC's 30 Rock for second place in the demo with 2.7/7.
