美国最新一周电视收视排行榜(06.04—06.10)
in YuleGuan, on June 16, 2007
随着暑期的来临，美国电视业像也跟着放假一样，收视率下降得更快。榜单上出现的大部分节目都是重播剧，毫无新意。因此，我们这期重点讲解一些新面孔。希望这些暑期上档的节目，能有好的表现，让电视节目丰富一点，伴随观众进入夏歇期。
已经记不清上一次NBC电视台夺得周冠军是在什么时候，大概是在近半年前的橄榄球比赛最火暴的时候，以微弱优势获得的胜利。在随后的几个月中，NBC电视台的日子并不那么好过，长期在TOP 10里的缺席。而上一周，NBC终于抢到了失去已久的冠军位置。毫不意外，还是依靠真人秀节目--《美国达人/America's got talent》。
