The 3 in the demo is great, though still down from last week, but is anyone else concerned about the nearly 1 million dropoff in viewers from the premiere?

What, I need to explain my choice of emoticons now? I really wanted to use this one :guffaw: but I've been told to dial down the sarcasm.

Turned out to be Sara after all, didn't it! :lol:

Another question: what significance does the demo number have if the actual number of viewers is lower? CSI's demo of 3.2 wasn't in the Top 25--the show at #25 had a demo of 3.4, so presumably it's a few rungs below that. CSI's 12.7 million viewers put it at #18 in the Nielsens. I can't...

Not that I want to get into an old can of worms, but it's along the same lines as people begrudging Ray his happy ending. Yes, he was responsible for the whole mess, and it seemed people would have been a lot happier had Ray gone to prison. I contended that the rest of the team would've had to...

It's been my observation that people have trouble separating LF and RL. OK, so you admit to hating RL but say you don't hate LF. So why do you choose to believe that LF left CSI in a negative way, i.e. fired? Or that he would do something negative like diss the show? People aren't just glad that...

He wasn't asked about why he left CSI. He was asked about the medical jargon he had to use in Contagion. The person who asked the question prefaced it by mentioning he had a wife who was a real CSI and he said she said the way they do things on CSI drives her right up the wall. To which LF...

Say WHAT??!! All that means is that they all believe the same thing. Doesn't mean it's right. LF didn't diss anyone--he made a freaking JOKE and people laughed. If you don't want to listen to the interview, that's not my problem. It's not my fault you're afraid of being proven wrong. Declaring...

Or, the "it" in "so it wasn't all bad" is referring to having to recite medical terms in Contagion, which is what the paragraph was about. Talk about splitting hairs! :rolleyes: Have you ever asked someone something like how was your weekend or how are you doing, and the response is, Oh, not...

Not taking my word for it, eh? :) http://www.iamrogue.com/news/interviews/item/4767-iar-press-conference-coverage-contagion.html

I didn't conclude anything. All I said was that given what I read in the actual interview--NOT the sound bites in news article in the Toronto Sun--I think it was very possible he could have been joking. The writer didn't say how LF said it. In my opinion it was presented in such a way as to...

I looked up the actual Contagion press conference that this article refers to, the one that included director Steven Soderbergh, LF, Matt Damon, and others. LF is definitely referring to alot of movies being stupid; it was not a reference to CSI. As for the comment he made re: the reason he...

Do the words "taken out of context" mean anything to you? Try reading the sentence before the "stupid" remark again. It said he didn't directly compare CSI to Contagion. I got the impression the "stupid" remark referred to many of the movies that are put out today, not CSI. He talks about how...

Let's pick on Brass. He is "tainted", after all...:shifty:

Putting an exclamation point at the end of a statement usually indicates emphasis or excitement. Hence "A strong start!" indicated to me that someone was excited about it. Whatever. :rolleyes: --------- jafox, I guess I don't understand about the viewing pool. Wouldn't the same people who...

OK, based on what you just said, how do you justify comparing the season 11 finale, which was on Thursday at 9:00, to the season 12 premiere, which was on Wednesday at 10:00. Isn't that 'apples and oranges' too? Different pool of viewers and all that? And for the record, I didn't say it spelled...

How is it apples and oranges? Many of the articles talking about LF's departure were quick to cite the falling ratings since WP left and LF came on. Articles about Ted Danson's arrival seem to think that things will be better for CSI ratings-wise. The numbers for the first episode have not...

Sadly, I really don't think the numbers will pick up all that much. CBS lost 2 million viewers between Criminal Minds and CSI--Criminal Minds had something like 14.1 million. So after CM was over, 2 million people turned the channel. Even on a new night, CM should be a much better lead-in for...

And I think this is called 'rationalization'.

Strong start? In what universe? Season 10 premiere 'Family Affair' - 15.7 million Season 11 premiere 'Shock Waves' - 14.688 million Season 12 premiere ' 73 Seconds' - 12.6 million That's down 2 million viewers from last season, and earns it the distinction of the lowest CSI season premiere...
