Keep in mind that these ratings look a little lower than they would normally be, because Marc Berman's The Programming Insider is on hiatus this week and I'm using fast national ratings.

The Contender actually went up. Does that mean it's really even higher according to the other ratings source?

Heavyweight fighters suck now in days,the heavyweights are in their worse era ever.

I watch it too. :wink:
It actually has good appeal across the board. Women and some men.

DH lured in 23.7 million viewers last sunday 
Quote: (From the Hollywood Reporter)
'Housewives' highlights defeat insect invasion
A swarm of locusts hit CBS on Sunday, but the insect invasion was no match for a clip-show recap episode of ABC's "Desperate Housewives." ABC easily won the night, as usual, with a solid performance from a special "Sorting out the Dirty Laundry" highlight reel episode of "Housewives" that lured in 23.7 million viewers and 10.0 rating/23 share in the adults 18-49 demographic, according to preliminary estimates from Nielsen Media Research. ABC also dominated at 8 p.m. hour with a fresh episode of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" (16.7 million, 6.7/17) and at 10 p.m. with fledgling drama "Grey's Anatomy" (18.2 million, 8.1/20). CBS had a good night with 8 p.m. drama "Cold Case" (16.5 million, 3.7/10) building significantly on its "60 Minutes" lead-in (12.4 million, 2.5/8). The eye network's heavily promoted 9-11 p.m. telepic "Locusts!" (12.8 million, 3.9/9) did OK but won't go down in the Nielsen annals as one of primetime's great made-for plagues. NBC's regular 8 p.m. edition of "The Contender" (5.5 million, 2.5/7) produced modest numbers but an extra helping of the boxing reality show at 9 p.m. (6.4 million, 3.3/7) improved despite the "Housewives" competition. At 10 p.m., a fresh episode of NBC's "Crossing Jordan" (8.8 million, 3.3/8) had trouble keeping up with the ABC and CBS competition. Fox was on the sidelines for the night with its 8-10 p.m. telecast of the American Top 40 Awards special yielding only 4 million viewers and 1.6/4 in adults 18-49. For the night, ABC towered over the pack with an average of 16.7 million viewers and 6.9/18 in the key demo. CBS was second in both measures (13.6 million, 3.5/9). (Cynthia Littleton)

That is ASTOUNDING for Desperate Housewives.
I think I am with Rod in predicting around 30 million for the finale, or at least the series high.
If they advertise the heck out of each of these next four episodes, each one could gain up to a million viewers a week, leading to the finale.
