Desperate Housewives is just amazing. I just don't get how it keeps increasing in viewers. Lost is also doing fabulously. I think it is kind of funny that its highest rated episode is the one where Dom was the star. All the radio ads and tv ads made use of that and those LOTR fans tuned in. For the season finale all they need to do is promote Dom again and they'll have some big numbers.
Aside from new shows doing great, CSI is unstoppable. CSI sure did kick off sweeps in a big way. CSI seems to get a few 30mil+ eps a season, something no other show can claim. I am so happy that CSI is beating the crap out of that garbage the apprentice:)!
NBC is doing rather poorly, what with their highest rated show of the week only getting 17mil viewers.

Housewives continues to shock me.

How many 30+ is that for CSI? At least 3 right? I'm glad it continues to do great.

Great for WAT and Cold Case.

I hope it stays like that. I would love a third straight year at Number 1. As far as I can tell, the only competition is Desperate Housewives. No Friends to compete with this time.

Desperate Housewives is so awesome! It has a huge following, and it is becoming very popular. These ratings confirm that for sure.
