Looking at the ratings, USA needs more shows like Burn Notice that not only get a good ratings number for the network, skews younger than the typical USA program.

....Turner Entertainment Networks president Steve Koonin said the ratings skid didn’t come as a surprise, given the circumstances. “Going against broadcast isn’t something we wanted to do, but we were forced into it by the writers strike,” Koonin said. “We knew that we were going to take a tumble, but the alternatives were not attractive.”
While Koonin will keep a close eye on Bar, he expects the show will bounce back. “Without The Closer, I think it will fall between 2.5 and 3.5 million. We absolutely overachieved with the premiere, but we’re still beating our delivery guarantees significantly.”

You'll have to get them from Marc...with the Nielsen delays from the weekend, I didn't get any cable Fri-Sun, and they don't re-send to me if it is delayed with the daily nationals I get.
Having said that, I did find this from multichannel...but only viewers
