I don't know about the order, but I found some more info from Neilsen's:

CBS - CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (top rated show for 2002-2003 season and for week of Sept. 22-28)

NBC - Friends

MTV - The Osbournes

DIS - couldn't find any info for their top shows

NICK - Spongebob Squarepants

HBO - Sex and the City (2002-2003)

ABC - NFL Monday Night Football, 8 Simple Rules (for 2002-2003 season The Bachelorette came in second to football)

BET - couldn't find any info for their top shows

WB - 7th Heaven (2002/2003 season)
(Charmed is actually first -run on WB, then aired on TNT shortly after, i couldn't find any info for TNT's ratings)

FOX - Joe Millionaire (for 2002-2003 season - blech)

UPN - WWE Smackdown (2002/2003 season)

(Prime-time viewership numbers compiled by Nielsen Media Research for Sept. 22-28, for cable stations, I looked to the network's own info or at http://www.atnzone.com/tvzone/features/nielsen2003.shtml)

My guess is that the CBS leading show is CSI since everyone I KNOW (including Myself) watches it and its the top rated show on the neilson ratings

CBS-CSI, I know it averaged 26 million viewers last season

NBC-Friends

ABC-8 Simple Rules, beleive it is currently ABC's highest rated show.

Fox-Joe Millionaire, averaged 22 million viewers last season.

the WB- 7th Heaven had a 12 share for season premeire.

UPN-WWE Smackdown

MTV-Real World, could be the Osbournes but I beleive the Real World did better last season.

HBO-The Saprano's

Bravo-Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, averages around 2.5 million viewers.

TLC-Trading Spaces, usually gets around 3 million viewers.
