Great to see Food Network above the 1 million mark.
Am I the only one who noticed that VERSUS outdrew ESPN?!?!
maybe because of the NHL?
Maybe because of the WEC fight on Sunday
G4’s numbers this week with their big E3 coverage actually went down compared to last week. That must suck, I guess repeats of Cops and Cheaters do better than coverage of the biggest gaming event of the year.
