The War of 18-49, Pre-2001 Dramas: Charmed, NYPD Blue, The West Wing and more!


Continuing our massive data dump of War of 18-49 tables for broadcast series that don't have their own posts... here are the incomplete records for a slew of notable dramas that premiered before the 2001-02 season (the start of the A18-49+ era). In case you missed it, here's the comedy version of this post.




Pre-2001 Dramas

A handful of shows that aired prior to the start of the era already have standalone posts (CSI, Law and Order and Law and Order: SVU). For convenience, these posts are linked in the list below, but they're also listed on the main index. There are also a few shows listed that had complete 4+ year runs within the era but don't have their own posts (Crossing Jordan, Enterprise and Las Vegas). It's possible they'll get posts in the future, but they didn't make the cut this summer and I didn't want to withhold them.

For the pre-2001 posts, in order to make these pages load a bit faster I'm just doing the purple (A18-49+) table for each series. If you really want the raw numbers you can always reverse-engineer them using that season's league average. (Raw A18-49 = A18-49+ * League Average / 100)
