I thought it was good, particularly the whole mystery with Edie's new husband. But I am not sure I am all that comfortable with Lynette's kids being 16.

I say still not what it was first season, what a shame

the fact that 48 hours can get 7 million should at least show the networks that they can put on something original and get some good results.

The reason why they don't program on saturdays is what again? they wont make any money?

cbs should repeat CW shows to give them more viewers.

Whya would CBS want to cut their saturday viewership in half or even less by showing CW shows????

Besides, the CW already airs encores most of their shows already, so there is nothing left to "encore".

The Daily Games for Monday, September 22 is completed.


A new, final session for the year began on Monday the 22nd and will last until Dec. 31st. Also on that date, we will crow the Grand Champion for the Most Medals for the whole year. Good Luck to all and we hope all of you play this great game.

Today's Daily Games features Chuck & Life. How well will it do in the 18-49 demo and how many total viewers will it get? A NEW Fall Session has just begun, so CLICK HERE to join the fun!




For complete Medal count and winners, visit the PIFC Daily Game Medal Site. There, you will view all-time winners, current medal standings and Daily Game milestones.

For getting Saturdays at least competitive again, I don't think a demo is as important as getting the viewers back in. Reality/gameshows would probably work best for CBS.

Mushu_jj, you're right about Power of 10. It got lost in the shuffle last season. It was getting 8 million in the summertime, but CBS was smart enough to place it up against American Idol on Wednesdays, and that killed it. It probably would have done well in the summer if they tried to bring it back.
