Ratings: Kidnapped's Samplers Go Missing
Wednesday's Dancing with the Stars results show won the 8 o'clock hour with an audience of 14.9 million, followed by the debut of CBS' Jericho (11.4 mil), Bones (7.4 mil), and the season premieres of The Biggest Loser (6.4 mil in its first hour) and America's Next Top Model (christening the CW with 4.9 mil).
At 9 pm Criminal Minds led with 15.6 million viewers, followed by the first of two Grey's Anatomy repeats (10.6 mil) and Loser's back end (7.9 mil). In fifth, behind Top Model's second hour, Justice drew 5.6 million, down almost two mil from the previous week.
CSI: NY premiered at 10 pm to 15.9 million viewers, trailed by no, not the debut of NBC's Kidnapped, but the second Grey's encore (10.5 mil). With a sampling audience of 7.5 million, Kidnapped bowed in third.

That is too bad about Kidnapped and Justice! I really like both of those new shows. Kidnapped is a totally different scenario than Vanished and has a great cast! I hope that it is given the time to grow and continue to develop the characters and storylines. With Justice, the cast is great, and I really like how they show you at the end what really happened despite who won the verdict. Hopefully the networks will give new shows more of a chance this year to attract an audience.

I love that new show Justice. It's fresh, with familiar faces. It's like Law & Order and CSI rolled into one. I love, love, love how they show what really happened at the end.
Love Bones too! So glad to see it back and with new episodes.
Fox had me at Hello last night!

Once again America frustrates me with its viewing habits. Kidnapped was great, much better than Vanished, but people wouldn't even give it a shot. I can't believe more people would want to watch a rerun rather than check out a compelling new show. Apparently, NBC simply can't get any viewers in that timeslot unelss they're airing Law and Order.

ITA, J-Spot. Kidnapped is so well done, and trust me, it gets even better next week!

I wonder how many people didn't watch it because they had already seen that episode via Netflix or whatever other methods they did the early release with. Hopefully NBC doesn't throw in the towel too quickly.

i too have to wonder what effect the netflix thing had on the premiere numbers. and wasn't there some special thing with Terry Irwin on the second week. could these things have messed with the numbers.
the folks on the NBC board for the show are not taking the cancellation rumors lying down. we'll see if they do anything to affect the show.
