House reruns are not counted for the same reason that Desperate Housewives
reruns are not counted: the information you see is ONLY for the official
timeslot. CSI airs many of the reruns in the same timeslot as the show
normally airs, so CSI ratings are lowered. Desperate Housewives, meanwhile,
avoids showing reruns in the Sunday night timeslot, so none of its rerun
rqatings count 'against it'.
If only first run data was used, CSI would be the #1 show in viewers.
If only first run data was used, Grey's Anatomy would likely be the #1 show
in 18-49demo.
