It runs at 10/9 Central after The Unit and NCIS. I predict a rating of 9.2 or thereabouts, possibly higher if the name cast draws people, not to mention the lack of commercials.

Your thoughts?

Probably like a goddam /17 share or something, considering how well these CBS dramas always seem to do.

I don't know what is normal for that time period. What's a "meh" rating for it? Something not disastrous but not that good. That's what I'll guess.

Hopefully the ratings with be good. Saw the show last night (I love you CTV!) and I thought it was really great. Best new show of the season so far. But I just have this feeling it will do Alias numbers at best.

They didn't have any luck in this timeslot last year Close to Home almost died there, Threshold DID die there, Love Monkey aired for only 3-4 episodes, and The Amazing Race went really low.

I think the preimiere will reach 12M, but it'll then fall off to about 8M and get cancelled.

The Unit and NCIS are strong, compatible lead-ins, though.

I think it will do well.

I tried watching it this weekend b/c CBS released it (and The Class) on Google Video, but I couldn't really get into it and I just turned it off. I'll maybe give it another try, though.

It has a good cast and production values but unless I'm mistaken it is asking the audience to identify and root for killers and thieves. I don't see how that is going to sell.

You dont think it being sandwiched around the NCIS/Unit line up will help it. The problems with the shows you mentioned like Close to Home and Treshold was that during that time only NCIS was the only strong perform for CBS on that night. Now Unit is getting better ratings than NCIS, their tuesday lineup is stronger than ever

I average age for NCIS and The Unit viewers is probably around 55, not the target age for Smith. I don't really see how they could get into a show about antihero thieves after rooting for the good guys for the last two hours.

I dont know if this will hold on well, it was kinda odd and pretty dark. It's interesting, i'll give it a few more episodes but it's hard to say right now if this is a show that will see back for a another season.

This show is horrendous. I can't believe they killed the security guard. He was just doing his job. What a dumb show.

I wanted to watch this, but when 10 rolled around....i couldn't work up the energy. I wound up just watching the pilot episode of Psych on YouTube.
