When you consider that 7 of the top slots for the week were for Olympics coverage, 21st for the week is very, very good (and Cold Case just behind us). Normally NBC wouldn't even have one slot, which is what makes it impressive.
mswood:
Well much of the lineup of CBS and ABC used repeats. But what is very impressive is that while we always do worse in the Spring (Yeah Football does really help on Sunday) even with much, much stronger competition then we normally get this time of the year we still our showing double digit improvements over last year.
slayton:
I don't know if episode 2 of TAR16 is a valid comparison because episode 2 of TAR14 was up against the oscars.
