-- Can you post a ranking of NEW shows and who had the highest ratings for their premiere? or maybe just for their episode this week? This would be really cool if you could. Thanks.

19 LAW AND ORDER:SVU NBC Fri 10:00PM 7.1/13.0 7,629,000 10,261,000

8 Simple Rules, Life with Bonnie, and Push Nevada were the top NEW shows for that week.

For 9/23-9/29, I think CSI Miami, Good Morning Miami (thanks to lead in Will & Grace), Hidden Hills (thanks to lead in Frasier), and Without a Trace were very impressive. Expect GMM and Hidden Hills to slow down though. Presido Med (episode 1 only), Boomtown, and American Dreams did decent as well, probably all three will make the top 25 or 30.

I'll post the 9/23-9/29 ratings tomorrow when it comes out.

That '70s Show at 46?

Wow.

Pavanbadal do you know what kind of ratings it was getting in previous years?

I thought it was a definite top 30 program.

Now that is bad. I don't see it lasting that much longer if it's that bad in the ratings. Thanks for posting it Pavanbadal. I've been wondering about the ratings for the new TZ. Thanks again.

Usually it is in the top 40 in new episodes and lower for reruns. So it was slightly off that week, but then again that was it's second week, while other shows premiered that week. So it should be a bit better soon, it's not on the next few weeks though because of baseball.

For UPN that is good, LOL!! It is up against The West Wing I think, which is a ratings bonanza.
