Nielsen Media Research Top 10- Broadcast Primetime- Week of Jan 02 - Jan 08, 2006

Wow, it looks like someone was finally watching ABC again! Maybe they should considered a new 24 hour football format? While there were a lot of people watching football last week, I bet there were an awful lot of bored wives out there.

It's no secret that I hate network television with a passion. But I'll be damned if I didn't watch 7 out of these ten top watched shows.
If anyone has never seen The Shield, it is perhaps the best show on television, watch it.

I totally agree with you Dave! I tried to get my wife to watch it with me but she can't bear to see the "Commish" as a bad guy. Michael Chiklis plays a great role in a series that is awful uncomfortable at times but someone you can root for in a weird way.
