And it's that time again. I was going to start in just a few minutes but those minutes turned into hours.

I also see a show out of order alphabetically. I'll fix that before I go back and finish this week's shows. I don't do it all at once, remember, because I don't seem to have a way to save my work without it being visible for everyone. If the number is on the left it's last week's unless I messed up.

"Crimetime" this week was "Fire Country". I should have just left the title as is because it's the only one this week. For those who don't know, "Crimetime" is what USA Today used to call the Saturday CBS reruns when they listed the shows. I'm not sure the name would fit this show, but maybe arson is involved.

"Recipe for Disaster" is an appropriate title for the latest CW show. The site couldn't even spell "recipe". Any lower and the second episode would have had a two-digit number for thousands of viewers.

Football is BACK! Okay, preseason numbers, but that's better than most shows. The other kind fell off sharply once the U.S. was out of it.

Yikes! Any lower and "FBoy Island" is tied with the second "Recipe Disaster".

I assumed "Big Brother" would be two hours. Why couldn't it have been? It's not like things could have gotten any worse if they had. Even "Sheldon" can't be relied on.

Another fix is needed for last week's as something is out of alphabetical order.

Another fix from last week. The wrong night! You knew "Funniest Home Videos" didn't get those numbers on Wednesday.

The CW is back to normal on Monday. Seriously, who gave "Bump" another season? Is that a show about the old WB boards?

Tuesday was confusing. The shows were grouped by network, not time slot, which is the way the site that shut down did it. But that meant all the white shows were together. ABC, CBS and The CW did reruns, which are shown in gray.

There it is. Have there ever been 20 CW shows?

And even Sunday night can't get as many as 500,000 viewers for a show.

At least Fox did slightly better once the shows were animated.

Football is coming, but it's going to be a long fall.
