Unfortunate that they did not include the statistics for women viewers.
There seem to be a lot of women waching the show, and a good many of them are watching it for the beefcake potential.

It seems that the USA is still a male dominated society! In South Africa this would be gender discrimination as you only give stats for men. I am a women and I know thousands and thousands of American women watch the show. So my comment is. Do women really count in America or is the equality of the genders a sham in the worlds, so called, leading democracy?
And yes once the show is broadcast to Africa I will be watching it!
