CSI: New York's third outing continued to build on the trend set by its two predecessors of winning the 10:00pm slot's top rating -- 16.5 million viewers, compared to runner-up NBC's Law & Order, which trailed with 12.3 million viewers.

According to figures from the Hollywood Reporter, "American Dreamers" scored a 6.0/16 rating, placing it first in its timeslot against NBC's Law & Order (4.3/11) and ABC's Wife Swap (4.2/11). These ratings mean that out of all the households in America, 6% were tuned in to CSI: New York last night, rising to 16% when factoring only in those households actually watching TV at 10:00pm. Compared with last week, New York did lose 15% of viewers, however.

"American Dreamers" was the most-watched show of the hour, but lost out to ABC's "Lost" in the 8:00pm slot for most watched show. That show netted an audience of 16.6 million, 100,000 more viewers than those for CSI: New York. But helped by a good 13.8 million viewers for the 9:00pm CSI: Miami rerun, CBS did win the overall night. It garnered the highest number of overall viewers and had the highest overall ratings of the night (8.8/14), although it came second to ABC in the all-important Adults 18-49 demographic (4.2/11 against ABC's 4.7/13).

The Floridian CSI: Miami didn't let the side down either- "Under the Influence" of its audience it won top program for CBS on Monday night, scoring 7.5/19 in the Adults 18-49 demographic, and winning over 20.3 million viewers. Not only was it up on the previous week but also on the previous year.

Thursday was also a veritable victory for CBS, winning every hour of primetime. Its 10:00pm show Without A Trace beat NBC's ER for the second time in a row... but it was of course CSI: Crime Scene Investigation that led the way for the night's most watched programme, with a rating of 17.1/26 and 27.8 million viewers. Although the episode itself wasn't "Down the Drain" metaphorically speaking, it was slightly down on the premiere two weeks ago.

Full reports can be found at the Hollywood Reporter. Many special thanks to Al Forno!

Why can't the CSIs get dates?

	All work and no play makes Greg a blue boy.
	It probably has something to do with the fact that every time Horatio Caine has sex with a woman, she dies.
	Shower sex loses its allure when there's lemons involved.
	These people collect body fluids for a living. Then again, if David the coroner can get laid...
	They can get dates, I bet. We just don't see it.
	Three words: Hank the Skank.
