CW Programs - Season Ratings through 10/29/2006

You're making a straw-man argument here, Troy. EHC wasn't subjected
to even *half* the scrutiny that S60 has been subjected to, Veronica

Who?

I guess it depends on what channels you watch. I didn't see any hype
for EHC (whatever that is) or Veronica. Or ads for CW for that matter.
If I wasn't a news-reader, I wouldn't even know CW exists.

Obveeus...

Everybody Hates Chris got a ton of hype. The show isn't particularly funny
at all...kind of a poor attempt to copy Wonder Years if you ask me. Still,
it was being touted as the funniest show on TV, just like The Office (which
also doesn't deserve such hype).

On the other hand, I couldn't get get through a single episode of Law &
Order without hearing "Studio 60 is the best new show critics acclaim"
yelling from the screen.

Obveeus...

That seems very strange. I can't think of any reason why Studio 60 would be
advertised during L&O while Everybody Hates Chris wouldn't be. Maybe it was
just something strange that happened with your local TV station?

As I said the first time: "It depends on what channels you watch."

for Fall 2006. And that's why it's getting all the scrutiny.

Mars, either, despite critical and viewer acclaim and all the hype
that UPN and successor network the CW have ever been able to muster.
Your denial that the scrutiny that S60 has been under has to anything
to do with it being on a big-three network is amusingly obtuse.

So, the top CW shows so far

Does this go in order? I don't understand why Gg isn't #2... is it
because Smallville had a smaller rating but more viewers?

Obveeus...

It isn't a tie. It is a race 'won by a nose'. GG is on the podium, but
sucking bronze.

Overall, Gg is the 2nd or 3rd highest rated show on CW right now,
correct? Gah. We may be in for an 8th season after all. Panic!

Obveeus...

Wishful thinking.
