I think it says something about each - and viewers habits - but not sure what. If I were a Net/Boss, I would pay attention to these numbers. They portend the future of TV, to some degree. If I were a producer, I would not mind my show making this list (theoretically). It may not be good for business, but I know that I only DVR my favorites, so I would be projecting that same process on my viewership. (p.s. - I'll mention this here as well as Sunday's Nielsen results... haven't rec'd my daily email from TVbtN in a coupla days - what's up with that.

NBC ran a Law&Order:SVU repeat which had a Live+7 viewership of 9.454 million, and a timeshifting increase of 3.4%, which you'd expect since reruns are rarely highly time-shifted.
