Those are good numbers. TAR is virtually identical to Survivor in the ratings now.

Do they ever show how the ratings are for the west vs. east coast? It seems like the lead-in of a 3-hour football game is likely to turn off those viewers (east coast), rather than have a precursor of 60 minutes (west coast).

Still the ratings are good. Not great. I wish CBS would try harder to promote this show, like do 15-second bios, so it brings new viewers up to speed by the next show.

TAR has at least 5 more seasons in it. At least!!

That's just from 8 to 9 pm...TAR didn't start till 8:15 in most places.

8:00 p.m.
CBS - 60 Minutes / The Amazing Race (season premiere)
Viewers: 12.97 million (#1), A18-49: 3.4/ 9 (#3)

8:30 p.m.
CBS - The Amazing Race (season premiere)
Viewers: 10.35 million (#3), A18-49: 3.3/ 8 (#3t)

9:00 p.m.
CBS - The Amazing Race (season premiere)
Viewers: 9.98 million (#4), A18-49: 3.3/ 8 (#4)

9:30 p.m.
CBS - The Amazing Race (season premiere)
Viewers: 9.89 million (#3), A18-49: 3.3/ 8 (#4)

10:00 p.m.
CBS - The Amazing Race (season premiere) / Cold Case (season premiere)
Viewers: 9.71 million (#2), A18-49: 2.6/ 7 (#3)

Still pretty solid. At 10:30 pm Cold Case lost about 1.5 mill viewers from it.

Ahhh, remember the lean years?? When we thought our beloved TAR was going to be canceled, and was relegated to a summer series? Never knowing where they would place it in our viewing week?

It took the Emmy's and that solid summer run to give TAR the inertia to keep going.

Finally! And I too turned it off when TAR was over. Cold Case bores me.

/\ Same here. I don't give a rat's butt about Cold Case. Cold Case and all of the Law n Orders are interchangeable and indistinquishable from each other. I haven't watched any of them since I last saw the original Law n Order 10 years ago.

Without football overrunning and pushing 60 Minutes into its timeslot, and facing off against football and another reality series, The Amazing Race 15 did not do well in the ratings last night. At 8 p.m., it was the least-watched show among young viewers ages 18 to 49, and placed third among overall viewers, just ahead of The Simpsons.

Expected the ratings would be higher by the end of the season.

Great. Does anyone know what sorts of psycho-demographic profiles, etc. comprise/describe Amazing Race viewers?

Wow, that Neilsen chart is interesting. Take out the sports, and TAR is the 12th highest rated show.

Sah-weet! Season 17 is practically guaranteed. I can't imagine it takes a lot of money to produce a season of TAR.

Ratings are doing fine but whatever's in the 1st post is not right, that included football overruns and is not the 18-49 rating.

And since someone asked, I'll explain ratings real quick here. The total viewers does not really matter in the ratings too much, only the 18-49 viewers gets counted in the rating that gets counted for advertising. And for TAR, the demographic is a bit on the family side, which includes more <18 and >49 viewers than say, family guy, which pulls a significantly higher rating than TAR but have less viewers. But TAR is a non-scripted show, which cost a lot less to produce than say a drama series like Desperate Housewives and a ~3.3 rating is more than enough to count as 'good.'
