They sat it was set for the older 50+ crowd, well that crowd is constantly growing with more boomers arriving on the scene.

Go Selleck you are one great actor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks CBS and keep them coming.

and my DVR has half the simpsons episode on the KOTH so what will the DVR numbers look like

and Jericho is great for the CW, they should order new episodes

And not bad for The Apprentice too.

CW has found the cheap way out, which is a surprise because WB was forced to buy movies w/TNT/TBS like all of the Lord of the Rings and The Wizard of OZ, so you would figure that CW would still own the rights to the few Flix From The Frog that WB use to own, at least they were rescent movies that people in the CW’s demo had heard of, other than the Bond flix, few of the old MGM movies, were classic and I am surprised that they are bringing in the numbers that they are.

Maybe it benefits CW to keep the numbers low so next season when they air new episodes of anything they will be able to say a 1000% increase over the same time period last year….but honestlythey are trying to build Mon to Thur schedule and they have all but given up on Fri and Sun so they are going w/ the cheapest route possible on those nights airing 1 hour of new shows out of 6 total hours, probably are actualy making $$ going this route

The third season of Univision’s popular reality competition, “Nuestra Belleza Latina” (Our Latin Beauty; Sunday, March 1, 8pm – 10pm ET/PT; 7pm – 9pm Central) attracted nearly four million Total Viewers 2+. With the premiere of “Nuestra Belleza Latina”, the Spanish-language network took the #4 spot in the time period, beating CBS among Adults, Men and Women 18-34 as well as Persons 12-34.

I’m glad, love b&s

I think B&S would have stronger numbers if not for the late timeslot.

A lot of people I know are in bed by 10 on a Sunday night!

Now that doesn’t bother me, because I am also old, but it explains why it doesn’t about to kids. It’s not because it good, and young people don’t like anything good. It’s because the show isn’t really about anything young people could relate to, at least not when they have 200 other viewing options, plus video games and the internet. This isn’t 1964.

A few days ago we were talking about NBC being the worst performing network in the world, and someone wanted to hold Univision up as an example of a worse performing network.

Umm . . . how much do you think it cost UNI to pull better demos than CBS last night? Probably all the Univision programming for the entire week doesn’t cost as much as what that Jesse Stone movie did.

Univison is the best performing network in the world, dude. Blows the regular networks out of the water in terms of return on investment, which is how any business is judged.

CBS was long regarded as the Fogey Network, and then in the mid 1990′s they cancelled a whole bunch of old fogey shows like Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman and Diagnosis Murder in an effort to become “young”.

And now, by airing shows like Jesse Stone, they are going back to their Fogey fanbase.

“CBS: The network for geriatrics”

I’ll keep watching The Apprentice if only because there’s nothing else I like on Sunday nights. I think Rodman should have been fired BTW.

Dollhouse only got a 1.6. So even more young people watched Stone than that youth oriented Dollhouse.

Ok, Andrew Dice Clay hasnt been funny since he peaked in 1990 with the hilarious Adventures of Ford Fairlane (Dice setting Wayne Newton on fire was priceless) but come on now. What other reason is there to watch it now?

And as much as I dislike most sports, I think Clutz has a point. There are many different types of intelligence, and that blue-collar mechanic who likes NASCAR may be able to figure out car or A/C or heating problems that you or I (especially I) could maybe never hope to unravel. However, people who watch Dancing With the Stars, well, now, those people really ARE stupid! HA! Just kidding!

I can’t believe that the #1 rated show was a TV movie starring Tom Selleck! Both are stuck in 1986. The Sunday night TV-movie as a genre is so outdated, and Tom Selleck is even more outdated! The ratings for Jesse Stone stunned me.

Maybe CBS should make it into a series?

I am an occasional NASCAR viewer, and my IQ is about 140. I know plenty of NASCAR fans who are intelligent people. Signifant portions of NASCAR fandom may well lie in small towns, the south, and “flyover” states; populations of those areas are just as intelligent as the bicoastal people (we’re smarter, IMHO). In general, IQ and entertainment choices are not proportional. Pretentiousness and elitism, however, are directly proportional to entertainment choice .

…….(although I hear Gold Medalist Shawn Johnson from the Olympics will be in the next Dancing…so she of coarse is a superstar and is excluded from the “Circus freak” name)

So hats off to Dancing with the Pretend stars – It will be now called:
“Dancing with A Star and a bunch of freaks.”
