Ratings: Wedding Is Off, Race Can't Catch Repeats
Ratings bits from Friday and Sunday:
" On Friday at 9, the time-slot premiere of
Raines (8.62 million total viewers) trailed
Close to Home by 2.7 mil, but delivered 1.5 million more heads than who last tuned in to the NBC newbie.
"
The Wedding Bells (4.52 million, down a mil week-to-week) took the ratings plunge, as did
Six Degrees (3.18 mil), which (undeservedly! My wife likes it, darn it!) cooled off to the tune of 1.4 mil.
" On Sunday, a two-hour batch of
The Amazing Race (averaging nine mil) could best neither repeats of
Extreme Makeover: HE (9.82 mil), nor
Deal or No Deal (10.29 mil), nor a
Desperate Housewives clip show (9.79 mil).
" A special 10 pm offering of
Cold Case (13.09 million) topped
Brothers & Sisters (9.13 mil, down more than two mil from its last fresh eppy) and
The Apprentice (6.01 mil).
