CBS remained a solid first place for the evening, while ABC and NBC battled it out for second, with ABC coming out on top among households, but NBC taking second among viewers and adults 18-49, thanks in large part to the evening’s most-watched program (Deal or No Deal).
Numb3rs was the evening’s most-watched series series among adults 18-49.
Over at ABC, Women’s Murder Club was unable to take advantage of its Thursday night special showing after Grey’s Anatomy, as the series posted week-to-week losses.
My full analysis follows after the jump.

Jorja Fox’s last episode of CSI helped propel CBS to first place for the evening among households, viewers and adults 18-49.
However, ABC remained very close in the demo thanks to the evening’s most-watched show in that category, Grey’s Anatomy.
Women’s Murder Club failed in its special post-Grey’s Anatomy timeslot, with below 50% retention. Additionally, the show wasn’t able to match last Friday’s viewer total.

CBS dominates the evening among households and viewers, and wins among adults 18-49 as well, with a very strong outing for its sweeps crossover event of CSI (the night’s most watched show among households and viewers) and Without a Trace.
ABC though remained even from the week prior as Grey’s Anatomy continues to gain viewers week-to-week and maintains its strong demo audience (first for the evening among adults 18-49).

Led by the evening’s most watched series among adults 18-49 (House), Fox won the night among the demo and among both households and viewers.
However, it was a very competitive evening in overall viewership, with both CBS and ABC very close behind. CBS actually had the night’s most watched program in NCIS, which just narrowly finished ahead of House in total audience. The episode of NCIS was its most-watched episode ever for the fifth year series.
NBC also had some good news last night, as the network managed to leap frog both CBS and ABC to take second place on the evening among adults 18-49, thanks to a two-hour edition of The Biggest Loser and the always reliable Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
