Primetime Ratings: October 2010

[dm.]

All of CBS' rescheduling worked fine in the first week, but there are multiple cracks there now. Sad.

[Eric83]

Agreed, L&O is a New York sow for me it's weird seeing it in LA. I wish the original could have gotten that 21st season and beaten Gunsmoke.

I'm hoping CSI, CSI:NY, The Defenders, and [!@#$%^&*] My Dad Says all end up cancelled.

Apprently that's a new low for CSI in demos. Prediction: Starting next year, CBS will move The Mentalist to 9pm and CSI to another night, and put a new show at 10pm (another procedure of course).

[dragonflies]

Why would they? It's the #1 comedy on tv period. ALL shows lose viewers at times, I'm not worried about TBBT, as long they do great in the coveted demo they'll be fine

[DRW50]

The show had been gaining steam for years and is now losing viewers, including the 18-49.

Damn second week L&O: LA has lost a million viewers

[sheilaforever]

The new L&O really hasn't helped them at all. They could have kept the original. NOt that I would care.

Is there ANY new show on NBC that has somewhat decent recent???

Yay for Modern Family. The ratings continue to be great.

Well, I'm glad CSI gained 2m viewers.

That's a lot, indeed. Any special reason? Please DON#T tell me it was the Justin Bieber factor/episode???
