comparison is based on the ratings of the WB Friday premieres

It's Me" at 8:30, "Reba" at 9PM, and
"Raising Dad" at 9:30. |
WHAT TO WATCH FOR NEXT WEEK
The WB enjoyed a beefy increase in its second week for
"Reba" last year, which posted a 3.8 rating and sent it on its
way to an early renewal. The presence of JC Chasez on Friday's episode
may help bring the numbers higher, and the males may be intrigued enough
by the
gratuitous promo shots of Amanda wallowing in mud to tune in.
