ABC takes the lead

ABC was one step above the competition during the season's first official week, beating CBS by fewer than 100,000 viewers.

ABC's win was helped along by three high-stepping editions of "Dancing with the Stars," plus the healthy premiere of the "Grey's Anatomy" spinoff "Private Practice," which ranked 12th.

The week's top-rated prime-time show belonged to CBS - the durable "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation." But the premiere of “Dancing With the Stars” was hot on the crime drama’s heels, placing second in the Nielson ratings with 21.25 million viewers. The Tuesday night edition of “Stars” ranked fifth overall, with the Wednesday night results show securing the eighth spot.
