Season 10 Ratings Thread

I look at it this way, CSIM is in it's 10th season, it's on a crappy night and it rarely starts on time during football season but yet it pulls in an average of 10 million viewers. I think that CBS knows it's between a rock and a hard place, they know it's a crappy night, and even if they want to put a new show on, the new show wouldn't have an established fan base that would tune in to watch. And let's face it as many times as we may say we're tired of the way things are done on CSIM, we are still here every week voicing our love, dislike or frustation for the show. I think unless the ratings really tank, CBS is ok with how things are. Not many shows on TV today last this long and a lot of the new shows don't come close to pulling in the numbers the CSI shows did in the beginning and they won't be around in 10 years.
 
According to CBS press release, CSIM was up in all categories. Much better report than the preliminary numbers which had them down 5%.

CSI: MIAMI(10:30-11:30 PM) was posted a 6.4/11 with 9.97m viewers, 3.0/08 in adults 25-54 and 2.2/06 in adults 18-49. From 10:30-11:00 PM, CSI: MIAMIwas second in these measures. Compared to last week, CSI: MIAMI was up +3% in adults 25-54 (from 2.9/06), +5% in adults 18-49 (from 2.1/05) and added +200,000 viewers (from 9.77m, +2%).

CBS top programs of the week: #4 NCIS (an average of 19.43m viewers), #5 60 MINUTES (18.56m), #8 NCIS: LOS ANGELES (15.89m), #9 TWO AND A HALF MEN (15.29m), #10 THE BIG BANG THEORY (14.54m), #13 THE MENTALIST (12.42m), #14 MIKE & MOLLY (12.16m), #17 SURVIVOR: SOUTH PACIFIC (11.79m), #19 PERSON OF INTEREST (11.62m), #21 CRIMINAL MINDS (R) (11.26m), #22 UNFORGETTABLE (11.25m), #23 2 BROKE GIRLS (11.19m), #24 THE AMAZING RACE 19 (11.01m), #26 HAWAII FIVE-0 (10.70m), #27 RULES OF ENGAGEMENT (P) (10.62m), #28 THE GOOD WIFE (10.60m) and #30 CSI: MIAMI (9.97m).

:thumbsup:

I think CSI: Miami is still doing amazingly well, given the fact that it's been on for 9 previous seasons and is now facing delays every week from the NFL. Even though it may not be performing as well as the original CSI, it's still a moneymaker for CBS and they'd be foolish to not renew it for another season if the ratings keep up.

Good numbers! Thanks Theresa.
 
hmmm that's not good. Maybe people just thought it would be delayed yet again so they just got tired of it. It's a shame, it was actually a pretty good episode.
 
Yeah, I haven't watched this one yet, but it actually started on time. Probably because CBS Sports only aired ONE football game yesterday!
 
It may be many factors: constant delays, Sunday night instead of Monday's, constant playing with fans feelings - especially with constant back and forth regarding EC(and recent spoilers), Natalia's reduced screentime, little amount of Ryan and so on. Or maybe people are just tired of the show, last epi didn't have excellent ratings too, but there was a delay.
 
It was delayed a half hour where I live. The game that was on here was supposed to end at 6pm, but ran a little over as most supposed to end at 6pm games do lol. The episode wasn't as boring as I thought it would be from the promo, but it was just an okay episode, nothing special.

I keep forgetting different games play in different regional areas. Only one game aired in Chicago, and all programming aired on time here.
 
I'm lucky. It's only been delayed a few times where I live. But these ratings are NOT good. They better be adjusted up in the finals. I hope next weeks episode rates higher. :(

And did anyone see that commercial thing they had for the football delays telling you to set your DVR for 2 hours instead of 1? I have a better idea, how about CBS starts the football games 30 minutes earlier, then we wouldn't have any delays.
 
Those are awful ratings! I noticed that Mark Harmon had a movie of the week on USA channel, so do you think all the NCIS fans tuned in to that instead? Sunday night is way too competitive. However, if the storylines were better, we would be holding our own.

CBS doesn't have anything to do with when a game starts. They air it LIVE. The NFL decides when a game time is. CBS is just the station that airs it. That's their only part in it. And even if the game did start thirty minutes earlier, it could still run over. It just happens to have ran over only 30 mins the last few times... but it can go into big overtime where it runs an hour or more over. If it runs more than an hour over, then Miami is usually post poned. Luckily that doesn't happen very often.

Well then, if I was the (smart) CEO of CBS, I would try to make arrangements with the NFL...unless I didn't care about the TV shows my company broadcasts.
 
The final ratings didn't change, so they remain terrible. TVbytheNumbers is already predicting probable cancellation. Time to panic folks!
