They particularly don't want to watch reruns of shows they know won't be coming back in the fall, he said. With the price of original programming these days, broadcast networks have no choice but to use reruns, he said. For the week, CBS won with a 6.5 rating and 13 share. The WB had a 2.2 rating and 4 share, while UPN had a 1.8 rating and 3 share. A rating point represents 980,000 households, or 1 percent of the nation's estimated 98 million TV homes.
Share is the percentage of in-use televisions tuned to a given show.
