Time to put them in order. I didn't have computer problems today so I didn't have to save prematurely.

The new "90210" is getting good numbers.

CBS has a great Saturday night. All they had to do was get rid of "Love Island". Also, while USA Today doesn't (or didn't, since I don't bother to look anymore) identify what crime show gets a Saturday night rerun, it was a version of "NCIS". I choose not to identify the Saturday shows because you know they're reruns.

The CW continues to do poorly, but the magic is back on Sundays! They probably should have hypnotized people to come back on Friday.

Actually, they were in order. I've started doing that as I go.

I just didn't have rankings and a leftover episode didn't air. (Edit: I didn't get one of the numbers right last week because the two shows were tied the way I do them.)

Some more comments: I think the Family lost their Food Fight. Still, the networks continue to rely not just on competition shows but also reruns of those shows. In fact, some of those competitions aren't even bothering with new episodes!

Some of those competitions aren't labelled as reruns but their ratings sure look like it.

And this defies explanation: No one seems to care or even realize "America's Funniest Home Videos" is in reruns. Maybe they were watching football the first time around.
