take that Grey's. but, almost twice as many people watching CSI? the fact that this show still kicks major ass after 9 years is unbelievable.

i don't think this week we're going to see a big decrease in the average 18-20 million viewers that CSI was getting lately. people probably want to see whether they still like it without Grissom, Sara and Warrick, and want to give Langston a chance.

imo, two things might happen, either there will be a slow continuous decrease, or they will average about 17-19 million each week (cuz i think there will be a small decrease anyways).

I as well, think after the newness wears off, and this isn't meant to be negative, fans will check out Langston [LF] but the ratings will decline, after that, due to the fact that mega fans will miss WP and his riveting role as Grissom, and Jorja ad Gary gone too That's 3 stars who had a hugh fan base! time will tell~
