Hey Toups, did I call it or did I call it?

[Gray Bunny]

I'm just amazed at how low primetime network television has fallen in overall ratings. For instance, I remember some 10-11 years ago when I checked out to see how high or low a new sitcom on NBC was that starred Fred Savage (of Wonder Years fame) and it was only pulling in a lil over 5 million viewers. It of course was at the bottom of the barrel and cancelled soon after. Yet nowadays, a show that's only pulling in 5 million viewers can put you in 6th place? (I'm looking at Celebrity Apprentice on Sunday)... I mean. Wow!

Long gone are the days when the top shows like Roseanne, Home Improvement, etc. were pulling in 25 million on average.

[Toups]

LOL! Amazing that a show that gets between 1.5-2.0 in demos can get a spinoff. I'm guessing the spinoff will probably be called Chicago: PD.
