Ever wondered how much sway a single, fresh episode can hold in the fiercely competitive landscape of late-night television? The numbers don't lie: even amidst a week of reruns, a lone original broadcast can catapult a show to near the top.
Despite CBS's "The Late Show" cycling through repeats for the better part of last week (excluding Tuesday, October 8th), the program impressively secured the second-place position in the coveted 11:35 p.m. timeslot. This feat is largely attributed to the single, novel episode that aired during that period, showcasing the power of new content in attracting and retaining viewers.
