ABC comes in first with Dancing with the Stars having 21. CBS had CSI: Miami coming in second with 20. Coming in third place CBS’s King of Queens having 13 . Not far behind and tied for forth place was NBC’s Heroes and CBS’s Two and a Half Men having 12.
My Two Cents:
I really need to start watching all these CSIs I stopped watching when Kim Delaney was dropped from the show, but since the show has been going on since that time, then it must still be good. OK! I'll start watching again. Sorry, Kim but I held out as long as I could, but watching TV has become my life.
For the complete ratings from last night and who won the night (in key demos), stick around after the jump. . .

Who Won The Night
How do I read these ratings?
A Nielsen rating may look like this:
8pm - NBC - TVgasm The TV Show - 10.0/18
Focus on the 10.0/18. The RATING, 10.0, on the left represents the actual number of households that watched a show. One rating point equals 1,102,000 households. The SHARE, 18, on the right represents the show's proportion of the total households watching television at that time.
For example, TVgasms TV Show has a 10 rating/18 share. That means 11,020,000 households are tuned in to the show and 18% of all the households with a TV turned on are watching that show.
Ratings and Share are customarily broken down for various DEMOs -- a demographic grouping of viewers, like 18-49 adults or 2-12 children or 18-34 women, etc. Advertisers, and therefore networks, covet the 18-49 adult demo, and so tend to concentrate on that number.
