Since Hollywood has ushered in the new best actor and actress to their movies, the older actors and actresses have often found a new home in television shows. This is a good and bad thing. Good in that TV has gotten better. Bad in that there is less variety in movies being made as well as smaller budget made movies. Gone are the days of the indie movie being a big success. Here are the top 10 rates shows and networks according to Nielsen. It’s not surprising American football dominates the screens in living rooms. I’m a little surprised NCIS and Blue Bloods still rakes in the viewers. They are comfort shows like macaroni and cheese is a comfort food. They even brought back CSI but to me it’s not the same. Bring back Warrick from the dead and Nick from Seattle and then I might watch it again.
