Hopefully abc can find something much funnier and more compatible as a lead-in for DWS next season. I feel that there is room for another hit (10-11 mil.) in that time period, with the right show abc could take on NCIS in the beginning of the season and hopefully hold on to that audience till Dancing returns in the spring.

What's the deal with Gilmore Girls? Obviously, ratings won't be anything to pop open any bubbly about next season, but are they really going to go through with the reduced 13-episode season? I don't see how an 8-year old show with ratings like this can be all that profitable for the struggling network.

From what I have heard, yes. At this point there is very little interest left in it so it's time to say goodbye.

Does anyone know where we can get the full ratings for the week before i.e., primetime,daytime, evening and morning news shows. I also just found out that Rosie is leaving the View, now I am pissed, she was the best thing about that show!

When The Unit premiered I thought CBS had the next JAG. I don't remember the exact ratings but I think NCIS averaged 17 million viewers that night and The Unit kept all 17. Now The Unit couldn't even stay above 10 million viewers. NCIS had more competition and still performed better. The show really lacks creativity this season and I think that's what has turned viewers away. Maybe it is time for CBS to ax the show.

It is beginning to look as though Zucker and Reilly might be agents of the other networks.

Edited to add: I know NBC was in repeats with the L/o's, but still those are embarrassing numbers.

Look @ 7H.It has not hit over 3 mill. Since coming back form break. I don’t think the CW has any idea how to run the network.A lot of shows are down.

The CW has at least respected Gilmore Girls this season. Its treatment of 7th has been absolutely horrendous...it has no reason to complain about its performance. But GG has remained where it's been for years and is just plummeting now. The CW is just ruining Stars Hollow at this point - only renewing it for next year becuase it has a barely-lit flame left. But I don't see next year as being anything to expect wonders from. This season ruined the entire series for me.

Thanks for putting this up Marc. Hope you didn't miss House as a winner because of it.

Considering the trouble CBS has on Tuesday at 10pm and that Mark Harmon is about to make yet another Caruso decision and leave NCIS, I would be very reticent to cancel The Unit.

I hate how the CW treated 7H.

I have to say I'm impressed by the PCD finale numbers. The show was clearly appointment TV for some, but that was masked by the encore airings. The people who watched showed up for the finale (and since it's encoring after a well-timed Top Model clip show tonight, the original airing should top the repeat this week).

PCD grew in the A18-34 demo from a new Gilmore Girls (and before people say "but 8pm has Idol"... the Big 4 HH rating at 9pm is actually a whole point bigger than the 8pm Big 4 HH rating... so it's not like having Idol out of its way is making the timeslot that much easier). The total Big 4 A18-49 demo also rose 1.1 ratings points in the 9pm hour vs the 8pm.

So, for PCD 2.0, CW needs to simply do this: find a better timeslot, and skip the encores. Make it watch-it-or-miss-it TV (aside from the various backend ways to view it... but one-time-only on broadcast).

Totally. Given its 2005-06 performance, and the fact that the show was STILL the most watched show on the WB and UPN, 7th Heaven deserved a spot on the CW schedule all along...not just as a last-minute decision in May. But if they really didn't want the show at all, then they should have left it be. Moving it to Sunday no doubt killed the ratings momentum that the series could have probably kept on Monday nights once people realized the show was back.

wheres vlis, i wanna know what he thinks about abc's "wonderful" performance...

btw marc, i never criticize your winner or losers b/c it is your opinion and you usually back it up with facts....but boston legals "honorable mention" is confusing to me...

a show with the largest lead-in only manages a 2.5 demo for a new episode??

it barely beat cold case/svu (whos demos were far worse) and it gets a honorable mention??

correct me if im wrong but i remember jericho getting a 2.5 demo and being in the losers section...
