CBS Works Past Troubles for Premiere Week

With all the controversary with the CBS News and '60 Minutes,' CBS finally has some air to breathe. CBS' "Without a Trace" out viewed ER, which was the first time a show ever outbeat an original episode. CBS' crime investigative shows are ousting the situation comedies. It is somewhat interesting that America is infatuated with three types of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Miami, and New York. CBS' TV entertainment success is probably greatly appreciated, seeing how CBS News, after Dan Rather appologized about the National Guard Report, lost 500,000 viewers and it's continuously declining.
