CSI CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION - TV VIEWERS MAKE SUMMER EXODUS EARLY

TV VIEWERS MAKE SUMMER EXODUS EARLY

Some reports blamed a sudden rise in spring temperatures throughout most of the country, but, whatever the cause, ratings for some of television's most-watched shows took a big hit last week, with several losing millions of viewers. Even ABC's Grey's Anatomy , which offered its first new episode in a month, suffered its second-worst ratings of the season. And CBS's CSI Crime Scene Investigation tied a series low set earlier this month. Even American Idol is hurting. As MSNBC commentator Marc Hirsh noted "One week, the audience for the performance episode was down 5.4 million. That's one out of every five viewers who didn't come back. Idol may still be the most popular show on television, but with those numbers, it might not be for long."
