Las Vegas is doing better than it's Season Average but it's still not doing good enough. But I think NBC might order another Las Vegas Season because FNL is doing worse.

What an exciting night of television...

Strong 1 vs. 100 too. Celine pulled okay viewership but poor demo as expected. 20/20 is an unsung Friday hero. The morons at ABC need to decide against airing Greys and Housewives repeats if those are the results.

Sadly Marc, I don't see Fridays improving much for ABC and NBC even when the strike bait repeats are done in late March/April.

Seeing thos numbers the same question comes to my mind: why wants ABC to cancel Womens Murder Club?

Why didn't air yesterday a WMC repeat? Surely it would've done better than DH and GA

1 vs. 100 really shot up in the 2nd half hour. Over 1 million viewers? Thats good. Friday Night Smackdown improved from last week. ABC failed as usual with crappy repeats.

Well apparently 70% better demos and twice the viewership doesn't sound good to the chimps.

What does everybody think of a sixth season of Vegas?

NBC really can't end the show the way it ended last night... they just can't.... this cliffhanger was worse then last year... and I thought last year was bad.

Thanks.

I would say it is 50-50. If I had to predict, I would say NBC will order 13 new episodes, not a full season.

I think viewers are finally getting used to Tom Selleck. He was pretty awful in the beginning.. but I'm starting to get the hang of him...

I mean, based on the ratings, they've improved a lot throughout the past weeks.

I hope they get a season 6. Mike and Danny hold the show up just fine.

Sounds right on.

Vegas seems to be a show that always underperforms for the whole season and then picks up steam right around renewal time, enough to eke out another year.

1 vs. 100 was the only show to average over 8 million. Renew this show! May come down to what happens with Amne$ia, though.

yea las vegas is awesome its really funny, packed with action im surprised how far the ratings went down..... they should move this show away from friday..and as for ABC they should replace one of either d-h-w/g-a with lost i think that would be pretty cool
