Wow, I guess we across the pond are still not exposed to it then.

My bad it was actually CSI. There's a vid on youtube where he gets killed on the show.


Yep, NCIS started out as an after-thought in Tuesday shows. Now, it pretty much goes toe-to-toe against American Idol (if not actually out-rating it).

^Damn, and I thought those reality contest shows would stay within our lives of unwarranted hype and excitement for the next 5 years or so.

Always good to hear the downfall of crap.

Two and a Half men is the #1 comedy viewer wise and it's probably the worst comedy overall.

Besides, most of NCIS's viewers consist of 80+ year olds awaiting death.

NCIS attracted 19.2 million viewers, retaining 90% of last week's audience opposite a special edition of "American Idol" and marking the first time that the CBS series topped "Idol" head-to-head in households, according to Nielsen preliminary live plus same day ratings for Tuesday, March 1.

NCIS was first in households (11.7/18), second in viewers (19.20m), adults 25-54 (5.1/13) and adults 18-49 (3.8/11). Against "American Idol", NCIS retained 95% of last week's household delivery (from 12.3/19), 82% of adults 25-54 (from 6.2/16), 86% of adults 18-49 (from 4.4/13) and 90% of viewers (from 21.32m) compared to last week.

Nope, the argument was that it wasn't "cool" to watch NCIS, and that it was mostly 80 year old people waiting to die who watch it.

I have clearly proven both statements to be false.

:D

Not really. The only game I really play on PSN is COD: Zombies on Sundays with some friends around the country. I've got GT5, God of War Collection, and Uncharted 1 to work on. On the Wii, I've got Tiger Woods 12, Donkey Kong Country Returns, and Monster Hunter Tri to complete.

I'm really looking forward to Dues Ex: Human Revolution

I just hope the AI isn't (Please Use More Appropriate Word) dumb I've seen a few videos where the guys are just standing there asking to be shot :lol:

Kind of sucks that the takedown moves with your extended-blade-thing (no homo) also use an action button instead of being real time.

Obviously I was joking about the 80+ year fanbase and it's to be expected that a show that averages 19 million viewers will have at least a decent amount of viewers in the 18-49 demographic.

The show is still procedural crap, though. I mean, I understand liking it in a guilty pleasure sort of way, we all have that but it isn't a top show in any shape or form contrary to what the ratings say.

The Office is the NBC's highest rated comedy despite the fact that it isn't nearly as funny as Community, 30 Rock or Parks and Rec.

:lol: I'll give you that. I'd like to meet a hardcore fan of that show one day, though I doubt I'll find one. All 9 of them are probably being studied somewhere because if you like that show let alone be a hardcore fan, something is seriously wrong with you and I'm being dead honest.
