Top-100 TV Shows (through 10/21/07)

The latest top-100 chart for all shows airing on broadcast television for the period September 24 - October 21 (the first 4 weeks of the official TV season) is here and as expected - most of the freshman series have gone down. Christina Applegate, on the other hand, has plenty to smile about as her new sitcom "Samantha Who?" makes a new entry all the way at #13.

This fall's hottest new drama "Private Practice" stays put at #18, but its timeslot competitor "The Bionic Woman" continues its decline by falling 2 places to #25. As last week's episode averaged only 8.5 million viewers, unless those ratings improve, expect the NBC drama to fall out of the top-40 before Christmas.

The #1 program in America is still "CSI;" the top-rated ABC show is "Dancing with the Stars" (#2); the most watched FOX show is "House" (#4); while the hottest NBC show is "Sunday Night Football" (#11). The ratings-challenged Peacock network has only two entries in the top-20. "Smallville" is the top CW show (#84).

The chart contains: show ranking, show title, number of episodes aired after 9/24, viewers in thousands and rating.
