Ratings for Thursday Shows

Here's a rundown of how Thursday's programming did ratings-wise, as per EW.Some worthy notes: Vampire Diaries reached 4 million, it's first time since the fall, and CBS's procedural shows still seem to be going strong, with CSI and The Mentalist each around 14 million viewers, which makes them the winners of the night in terms of overall viewers. However, if you take a look at what Variety says, then ABC with it's Greys Anatomy/Private Practice combo took the first night of sweeps. Ahh, the ratings game.

CBS continues to dominate Monday Nights

The Big Bang Theory and Two and Half Men, the dynamic duo of Monday nights (I couldn't resist) continued their hot streaks in the ratings game. Big Bang posted the highest numbers with 18-49 year olds, while Men was the most watched program overall. Hulk says puny humans need to keep watching (sorry, couldn't resist again, I promise I'll stop.) Read more about other Monday shows and their ratings here.
