Numbers of Interest - Television Ratings for Monday 11/23/09 - Castle improving

With the much weaker lead-in of Find My Family (2.9), Castle improved .2 to reach 2.7 which is a season high. The only conclusion one can draw is that Castle does not need DWTS and the demographics aren't really that similar. Dancing with the Stars had 4.0 which is likely to go up today with the season finale.

Fox was down with House (4.6) and Lie to Me (2.7). Maybe it was Jennifer Morrison leaving the show, but the viewers left for whatever reason. The quality of the show has certainly been declining. What will be interesting is to see if House continues to gradually go down until one day it is no viable to keep on air anymore.

CBS won the night with How I Met Your Mother (3.7), Accidentally on Purpose (3.1), Two and a Half Men (4.7), The Big Bang Theory (5.2), and CSI: Miami (3.7). The Big Bang Theory hit a series high in total viewers. Maybe it was because it wasn't against DWTS and had Katee Sackoff, who knows...

NBC did the same as last week with Heroes (2.3), Trauma (1.7), and The Jay Leno Show (1.4). Heroes is still getting low ratings with little chance of recovery, but with all the extra revenue sources, we'll probably be laughing at the fans for another season for their choice of television. I have no clue why NBC is still holding on to Trauma. After canceling it a while back, there were reports they had resurrected it. The ratings are crap, the critics think it's crap, and regular viewers think it's crap. There is absolutely no reason why NBC should continue producing the show.
