The Game Raises Its Game on BET
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Cable, The CW, Cancellations, Ratings, Renewals,
Sometimes a cancellation can be the best thing to happen to the series.
When The Game was dropped by CW in May 2009, the comedy/drama about football players and their significant others was picked up by BET. That was a record-breaking move.
The first two episodes of Season 4 averaged 7.7 million viewers -- almost 6 million more than it did on the CW -- and set a viewership record for sitcoms on cable.

MONDAY (11/9)
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9pm): “Charlie and Alan wake up together…with a woman they don’t recognize.” Strange, but significantly less awkward than two and a half men.
- CSI: Miami (CBS, 10pm): “Ray Langston of the Las Vegas crime lab arrives in Miami to investigate after a severed leg found in the Everglades is discovered to belong to a girl who disappeared in Las Vegas a week earlier.” Horatio + Morpheus = sunglasses showdown.
- Little People, Big World (TLC, 10pm): “Jake gets his own cell phone for his 12th birthday, and before long he racks up an outrageous bill, making Matt and Amy question whether he s ready for the responsibility.” The Learning Channel is not known for highlighting responsibility—in pre-teens or fathers of eight.

8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (9.7 million, 2.3/9 in 18-49) had the best numbers of the night.
- The season ender of Wife Swap (4.2 million, 1.4/5) picked up 200,000.

At this point, no one-two combination could possibly help FOX’s Friday. The network’s recent attempt to pair Prison Break with Dollhouse resulted in dismal numbers.
8pm
- Ghost Whisperer (9.2 million, 2.1/8 in 18-49) was the most-watched show of the night.
- Wife Swap (4 million, 1.3/5) dropped 1.5 million.
- Howie Do It (3.3 million, 1.0/4) remained even.
- Prison Break (3.1 million, 1.0/4) let 300,000 escape.
- Everybody Hates Chris (1.8 million, 0.6/3) picked up 400,000; The Game (1.9 million, 0.9/3) raised 600,000.
