CSI leads CBS to ratings gold
CBS is poised to finish off an extremely successful season this week as the number one reigning network, due in no small
part to CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and its spinoff CSI: Miami.
The Hollywood Reporter announced that CBS is predicting a final season win, estimating that the network drew an average of 13.1 million viewers.
This would put CBS over two million viewers ahead of second place NBC, which estimates an average of 11 million viewers flocked
to that network.

Bloodlines Finale Brings in Strong Ratings
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation's fourth season finale, "Bloodlines," drew 25.12 million viewers in total last
night, easily making it the number one show of the evening.
According to
Mediaweek's Programming Insider, "Bloodlines" earned a 18.8 rating/27 share. This means that 18.8% of households were watching
CSI last night at 9pm,
while 27% of all households watching television at the time were viewing the episode. The ratings reflected a rise from last
week's 16.2/23, when
