I didnt think Worst Week would do well, but it seems I was wrong.

Good night all around for CBS
 
Winners...
TBBT, HIMYM, Two & Half Men, Worst Week and CSI: Miami

Worth A Mention...
Heroes and Chuck

Losers...
My Own Worst Enemy, Prison Break, SCC and 20/20


Round-Up...

CBS enjoyed its best Monday night in several years with all of it comedies setting a series or season record in either demo, viewers or both. I think CBS will be more than happy with all of its shows so far though Worst Week could have a better demo/rentention but theres no real need to change anything.

NBC had better news with Chuck gaining half a million from last week and returning to more than safe numbers, I think a 2nd season is pretty much secure assuming it doesn't suffer a huge drop in the 2nd half of the season.

Nothing to report really from other networks though FOX will need a new fall lineup next season.

Fall Winners/Losers to come later...

^ oh that looks like fun, im going to have a go now

ok im just going to list the stuff I dont agree with.

Greys Anatomny - In Danger

I am worried about the fact cast seem to leave every few weeks, I confess I dont watch it. It will probaly get another series, but it needs to bring its current cast together.

Kitchen Nightmares - Ok
Are You Smarter - Ok
Don't Forget The Lyrics - Ok

I agree, but I wish that was not the case.

Chuck - Danger
Life - Danger
Kath n Kim - Serious Danger
Crusoe - Serious Danger

Given the cut in hours, I am worried about those 4 shows, the last 2 I would say are near enough axed.

Privilged - Danger
Stylista - Danger
Everybody Hates Chris - Danger
The Game - Danger

I like EHC so that is a shame, however Privilged & Stylista is in ALOT of trouble, might be saved by the fact theCW has not got much else, they wont axe all 4 shows.

Smallville - Danger

Sure ratings not a problem but storyline is, given the great strides this season has made with Clark, any further delay is going to destroy all of that good work. Smallville in some form may continue, but not in its current form.
 
^ oh that looks like fun, im going to have a go now

Greys Anatomny - In Danger

Greys brings in 15 million+ and the biggest demo of the night normally so is totally safe this year but with cast changes, next year could be a big one. I think Greys will suffer the same fate as ER in the end and die a slow and brutal death losing most its fanbase along the way.
