Wow. I'm so impressed it didn't surprise you. You're so great. Man, I wish I could be so sure and awesome about knowing stuff as you are. Thanks, Oh Knowledgeable One from Upon High, for letting me know it should not have surprised me.

I am to be honest a bit shocked Grey's was able to beat CSI on the first go. I thought they would put a dent in CSI and maybe if they kept up the solid writing that they had last season would be able to over take it. This is big news. CSI only had 22 millon viewers. Over the last 2-3 years they have averaged close to 30 million but TV ratings really don't start climbing until a few weeks in anyways. It will be interesting to see if Grey's continues to rise. CSI has been losing the buzz factor for a while now..... maybe this will cause CSI to step it up because I don't know about the rest of you but I was very disappointed with last season.

Also to add, Friends I believe was the #1 scripted show before CSI officially took over.

I think the fact that CSI has stand alone episodes work against it in this case. If you miss a week of Grey's Anatomy you're missing MAJOR plot points. You can easily miss a couple weeks of CSI and fall back into the show. I'm sure this is what viewers think when making the choice between the two shows.

Rick, do you know what was the last scripted tv show to be #1?

It very well could, but GA beating CSI proves that the show will no longer be dominating its competition anymore. It's a 2 horse race now which makes Thursday nights a lot more interesting.

I completely agree. CSI only had 3 million viewers less than Grey's. It's still a powerhouse.

House will not even get close to CSI in the ratings this season until American Idol returns. Did you see the ratings House got on Tuesday?

I'm just saying that Grey's' ratings win over CSI on Thursday will probably only be a one-time thing... IMO, of course. ;)

Too bad you stopped the second half and not the first half. The second half had Catherine getting drugged and raped and waking up in a seedy motel room. They also had an interesting new murder where the guy is dead and on the kitchen counter is an exact replica of the murder scene in miniature.

    • Unfortunately I only had one or two pages from those months. I believe I posted them but it would only cover one or two shows. 
    • I think she would have been fine, although Beth was a thankless part. She probably was seen as aging out of the genre after AW.  I forgot she was on Sunset Beach. 
    • Nicole's lucky Im no a soap villian bc if I was Wig, Id replace the liquid in her Febreze bottle with an odorless poison so that everytime she sprayed that thing, she'd be slowly killing herself

    • OK, I like the Cat interactions with Xander and EJ. And, I get that there are new writers. But, Clyde was shot 12/11/2024.  So, why have we not heard Xander or EJ's response to the situation for five months!  Clyde shot EJ (or he ordered him shot), shouldn't he react more to the news of his coma.  And, I've never heard EJ or Kristin mention that the woman who lived with them last summer was a fraud. Rather than giving lip service to the idea of family and community, at least it feels like everyone no longer lives in a bubble.
    • I don't know if I could have seen that from her, honestly. But I feel like, outside of GH and her original DAYS stint, American daytime really didn't pay much attention to her, even though they should have.
    • Co-sign, 100% on this one. Xander was entirely in the wrong.
    • I'm seeing some interesting takes on this thread regarding Dani's behavior/personality, including right now. Here's my take on her: I think that Dani relishes in lighting people up. I think that's for multiple reasons.  I feel like Dani has probably largely been like this throughout her life. And that she gets joy in dragging people whenever she feels like it's necessary. I believe she feels like this is her being herself. I think one big reason why she's particularly giddy right now is because she's able to go back to acting this way, minus the hurt she's been dealing with due to Bill's affair. She got in Bill and Hayley's faces after their affair/wedding, but she was miserable doing it due to dealing with the hurt of that situation. Nicole's situation with Ted/Eva/Leslie allows her to act this way minus her suffering like she did at the hands of Bill. I believe she does empathize/care for her sister but is also interestingly enough rejuvenated by this situation. This situation is energizing her and making her act more like old self again, minus being hurt by her own's husband's infidelity. I think Nicole's situation is also a distraction for her from dealing with her own failed marriage to Bill.  
    • Great episode, better than what the spoilers said. The gambling story was tolerable but Jon Lindstrom sucks in the role. Ambyr Michelle continues to shine. The diner and country club scenes were very well executed.  The Jan and Leslie scenes were very good! My favorite is Eva, now followed by Nicole.
    • Today's show was good. The only part I didn't care for were the Derek/Ashley scenes. I think they are bland together and Derek is very bland by himself. He is the least interesting character on the show IMO. I don't think they have much chemistry together. I appreciated Jan's reaction to Leslie. I like how regular/realistic her and Mona are as characters. Jan came across as very believable of being appalled and even hurt by Leslie's treatment of them and towards Eva in the diner.  Leslie continues to try and manipulate people with IMO her fake caring routine, only to show her true colors after she's confronted/called out for her treatment of others. I continue to dislike the way she mistreats Eva. Speaking of Eva she was great again today. I love her and I like how Martin comforted her in the diner. I liked that Vernon showed concern for her as well. They (especially Martin) will come around quicker to her before others (like the Dupree women) will. I also am glad to see her and Ted continue to bond and him behaving like a father towards her/helping her. He's the only one in her life who is fully trying to stand by her. I look forward to seeing their relationship grow.
    • Xander was screaming at Felicity.  He did do something wrong.  Felicity was clearly upset by it and Cat/Chad told him to stop.  That's fair.  No one deserves to be yelled at their job-and even I think this plot point is too preachy.  It's not acceptable behavior for anyone to do that.
