well, now there are a lot of made-for-cable series like Monk, The Dead Zone, The Shield, Nip/Tuck and the sort that get great reviews and ratings. 10 year old Roseanne reruns do score very well, but a rerun that premiered a decade or more ago just isn't as must-see as it will be on again in a few months, whereas a brand new episode of these cable programs is a big deal because it's their first time aired.

Because the cable list you read is for TOTAL DAY. Cable usually has high rated shows during the day, like Spongebob. I've seen some Nick@Nite shows crack the top 20 for entire cable, which is very good. Usually their shows are in the top 50-75, and latenight shows probably 100 and over, which is great, since cable has well over 300-500 shows. It's not like primetime network TV, when shows only air between 8-11pm.
