The only point I’d contest is about the dream season ratings “drooping slightly”. Overall, the dream season lost 10% of the show’s audience from the previous season. It ranked #6 for the year, but that overall ranking was propped up by strong viewership for the early episodes in the season that were dealing with the immediate aftermath of Bobby’s death.By the latter half of the season, the show was no longer ranking among the top 10 series in the weekly Nielsen ratings. And this was a show that had been the #2 show in the US the previous year.Times were changing and every top show eventually fails and/ or ends. But CBS was right to be alarmed at the ratings drop.</blockquote>
