So You Think You Can Dance stayed at a series low for the third straight week. Big Brother fell two tenths from last week. The NFL's season opener scored 9.7 in the demo. "This game was down 1.2 points (11%) from the year-ago premiere despite including a Cowboys team that is usually a pretty massive draw."

    1. Exactly.

      Big Brother wasn't rejuvenated by this summer's gimmicks. But judging by the other networks' results, CBS was smart to not try out a show this summer.
