Season Finale Ratings:
5/18 Fast National Ratings
The season finale scored a 6.3/10 in households and a 3.4/8 in 18-49, building upon The King of Queens by 17% in the former and an impressive 26% in the latter. The show finished second in its time slot in households.

4/20 Fast National Ratings
Yes, Dear scored a 6.0/9 household rating and a 3.2/8 in 18-49, building upon its lead-in by 9% in the former and 10% in the latter. The performance was good enough for a third place finish in 18-49 and a second place finish in households -- as well as CBS' top show of the night in 18-49 for the third time this season. Overall, 9.04 million viewers watched, making it Wednesday's fifth highest-rated show.

4/6 Fast National Ratings
The series made a strong case for renewal last night, building 23% in households (6.4/10) and 29% in 18-49 (4.0/10) upon its lead-in. The show finished second in households, tied with FOX's Life on a Stick, and placed second behind it in 18-49. Unlike that show, Yes, Dear didn't have the benefit of a 21-share lead-in. For the second week in a row, we were CBS' highest-rated Wednesday show in the 18-49 demo.

3/30 Fast National Ratings
Yes, Dear scored a 6.5/10 in households and a 3.5/9 in 18-49, improving upon its lead-in by 7% in the former and an impressive 25% in the latter. Although it finished third in its time slot in both measures, it was CBS' highest-rated show last night. Yes, we even topped CSI: NY.

3/16 Fast National Ratings
The show pulled a 6.8/11 in households and a 4.2/10 in 18-49, finishing second in its time slot in both measures. It retained 96% of its lead-in in the former and 93% in the latter. Despite the drop-off (perhaps because The King of Queens benefitted from its transplated Survivor lead-in), Yes, Dear scored a higher 18-49 rating than lead-out CSI: NY.

3/9 Final National Ratings
The adjusted household rating for the series' 100th episode was a 6.0/9.

3/9 Fast National Ratings
The show didn't perform as well as last week, but still built upon its lead-in. It scored a 6.2/9 in households and a 3.2/8 in 18-49, and finished third in its time slot in the latter. The figures represented growth of 13% and 23%, respectively, from lead-in The King of Queens.

3/2 Fast National Ratings
The numbers for last night's episode of Yes, Dear were upwardly mobile, supremely salient, and unquestionably exalting. In layman's terms, it kicked ***. Scoring a 3.9/9 in 18-49 and a 7.1/11 in households, the figures represented growth of 15% and 6%, respectively, from lead-in The King of Queens. Better than that, the show finished second in its time slot in 18-49, topping both Alias and The West Wing -- each of which had higher-rated lead-ins. 10.9 million viewers watched.

2/23 Final National Ratings
Adjusted final ratings for the second episode of the season were a 6.2/9 in households and a 3.0/7 in 18-49, with 9 million viewers overall. It retained 94% of its lead-in in both households and 18-49, and finished third in its time slot in the latter.

2/23 Fast National Ratings
Numbers were a little more positive than last week's. The show scored a 6.7/10 in households and a 3.3/7 in 18-49, retaining 96% of its lead-in in the former and 94% in the latter. The show finished third in its time slot in 18-49. Keep watching.

Season Premiere Ratings (Final Nationals)
The adjusted household rating was a 5.9/9, which remained in 4th place. It ranked 53rd for the week with 8.8 million viewers. Retention from The King of Queens was 89%. The adjusted 18-49 ratings was a 3.0/7.

Season Premiere Ratings (Fast Nationals)
Yes, Dear's season premiere scored a soft 6.2/9 in households and a 3.1/7 in 18-49, retaining 90% of its lead-in in the former and 91% in the latter. It finished 4th in its time slot in households and 3rd in the 18-49 demo. Let's just say that with American Idol reverting back to a half hour in March, there's "room for improvement."
