    Interesting that the only CBS top ten show is also the only non-reality show, that “older” skewing NCIS.

  2. angie

    What with how often I am told that Gossip Girl is a huge hit online, I expected to see it in this ranking. Alas . . .

  3. Catherine (or anyone), does NCIS actively promote going to the website during the show? That could explain the high traffic.

  4. Holly

    Bill, I don't think so. I watch the show occasionally and don't remember anything.

  7. Angie, GG did make the list many times but once it shut off the streaming video, it's not particularly surprising that it would fall off, even without the “summer” effect. So far as I can tell, there are still no full episodes for GG available via CWTV.com
