One of the few shows that managed to be in the top 25 during it's entire run.

Yea WTB was not ranked in the top 25 in its first and last season. In its last season it aired on Saturday night and its ratings were pretty bad.

I got mine from WTB resourse, I think that they are a little more reliable.

I was just at the Who's The Boss Resource page and they got a ? for the average season ratings for those two seasons and the rating is not 25 but > 25, which means it finished out of the top 25. Not only that they have ratings for most of the episodes of that last season and each episode is ranked in the 60's and 70's except for the final episode which aired as an hour episode and ranked 26 for the week. It would be impossible for it to be ranked #25 that season. I like WTB too and was angry when it was moved to Saturday with Growing Pains. ABC killed both shows on that night.
