LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) Fast National ratings for Thursday, Jan. 20, 2005. The new "Book Smarts vs. Street Smarts" concept may have breathed a little new life into the "Apprentice" franchise. Although Thursday's third season premiere still lost to a repeat of CBS' "CSI," the reality show improved somewhat on the premiere numbers for its second season.

Overall, NBC won the night with a 10.4 rating/16 share, a bit better than the 8.9/14 for CBS. FOX was third on the frame with a 4.3/7, beating UPN's 3.6/6 and the 3.5/5 for ABC. The WB trailed with a 2.5/4.

NBC also scored among adults 18-49, doing a 7.5 rating in the demographic advertisers salivate over the most. CBS was second with a 4.2 rating and FOX was also in the mix with a 3.1 rating. Well off the pace were UPN with a 1.8 rating, ABC's 1.6 rating and the 1.5 rating for The WB. At 8 p.m., NBC started on top with "Joey" (8.2/13) and the first half-hour of "The Apprentice" (8.6/13). Second place went to CBS' "Wickedly Perfect," which edged the 5.0/8 for FOX's "The O.C.," though the FOX drama drew more viewers. UPN's "WWE Smackdown" had a 3.6/6 for fourth, better than the 2.8/4 for ABC's "life as we know it." The WB trailed with the first hour of the movie "Bring it On."

CBS grabbed first for the 9 p.m. hour with the 12.2/18 for "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation." NBC's "The Apprentice 3" was second with a 10.4/15. UPN won a tight race for third with "Smackdown," while FOX's "Point Pleasant" and ABC's "Extreme Makeover" tied for fourth with a 3.6/5. The WB's movie had a 2.6/4 to finish sixth.

NBC's "ER" closed the night with an easy win, doing a 12.6/20, better than the 9.2/15 for CBS' "Without a Trace," which more than doubled up the ratings for ABC's "Primetime."

.: Notes :.

  • Original Ratings: This episode dropped 49% of its viewers from the pilot. It got a 4.1/6 in the overnights, with 5.6 million viewers, coming in at #3 at beating UPN and WB.
  • Beginning with this episode, the show now has opening credits and theme music.
  • Jesse was once an altar boy.
  • The battle between good and evil begins with this episode.
  • Although she still does not know of her powers, Christina seems to will herself to use them in the church scene, where she causes the doors in the church to slam shut.
  • This episode feels quite different from the pilot episode. While critics called the first episode a mix between "The OC" and "The Omen", this episode takes on more of a truly gothic feel as less like a soap.
