Figures in grey are for repeats.

* “Grey’s” hit its lowest new-episode rating ever.

* “The Office” remains mighty and continues to beat “CSI.” “30 Rock” continues to not beat “CSI.” The return of Tina Fey’s brainchild fell 27% in 18-49 from its 2008 debut and 25% from its “Office” lead-in.

* “Survivor,” predictably, is back to dominating at 8 p.m. but “FlashForward’s” slide has halted, at least for the moment. The sci-fi drama remains solidly second-place in the hour, ahead of “Bones,” “Community” and “Vampire Diaries,” so ABC’s decision to give it a full first-season order seems less wacky now than it did a week ago.

* “Fringe” was up slightly but remains way behind its 2008 numbers and a distant fourth-place in its timeslot.

* For the fourth week in a row, “Leno” and “Vampire” remain eerily locked in a tie for the 18-49 demo, both shows garnering their best number of those four weeks. “Supernatural,” still way down from last season, continues to bleed a staggering chunk of “Vampire’s” lead-in audience.
