For the fourth week in a row, HIMYM's rating is lower than its lead-in, Big Bang Theory. How on earth is the latter more favored than HIMYM?!
Samantha Who draws 14M viewers for its pilot episode. Hooray!
Chuck actually does better in its key demographics and it could be because Prison Break is on hiatus this week.
Heroes' ratings improved, increasing 4% of its viewership from last week.
Journeyman is trapped in a bad time slot. Too bad, since it's one of the better series this season.
I would have wanted to continue watching Everybody Hates Chris, but my plate is kinda full. So I'll just catch that on cable....wait a minute, it's on Jack TV! The channel would have been gone from our line-up by January... :(
