Good news: I heard this morning that Ugly Betty had the highest debut of any of the new shows this season. :cool:

Bad news: Studio 60, Six Degrees, and The Class all had ~19% drops from week one to week two. 10% is expected by the networks. 19% raises a dangerous flag.
:truce:

Jericho only had a tiny drop, much less than the expected 10%, which makes it a tentative success so far.

The Nine, featuring ENTERPRISE's John Billingsley (Phlox) starts tonight, after the LOST season premiere.

Lots of numbers this season, eh? Studio 60, Six Degrees, The Nine... Add to the list 30 Rock and 20 Good Years... What's up with that?

I'm glad you found that because the article I read sounded like those shows were doing great but they were badly down in the ratings. :scratchhead: So I was like :scratchhead:

Methinks the article I read was edited for 'clarity' and never clarified.

You have to use butter to do that, don't you? :cool:
