ABC - GREY'S STRUGGLES IN ITS RETURN

GREY'S STRUGGLES IN ITS RETURN

New episodes of Grey's Anatomy returned to the ABC lineup Thursday night, but they gave the network little reason to cheer. Thursday night's telecast drew a 10.3 rating and a 16 share, down 23 percent from the comparable night a year ago. Coming in first during the 9:00 p.m. hour was CBS's CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, but it, too, was down from a year ago as it posted an 11.3/15, 12 percent below its year-ago ratings. Also returning with new episodes Thursday night was ABC's Ugly Betty, which drew a 6.4/10 to come in second behind CBS's Survivor: Micronesia. CBS's Without a Trace remained in the lead at 10:00 p.m. with a 9.6/16, outscoring ABC's Lost with a 7.4/12. NBC's E.R., which once dominated the time per iod, placed third with a lowly 5.7/10.
