The Nielsens for the past week maintained a holding pattern that we've seen in the past several weeks: Who Wants Millionaire to Be a Millionaire on top, with CBS sitcoms and news magazine shows making a strong showing. And NBC's Fear Factor keeps edging closer to that No. 1 finish, which it certainly deserves.

New to the top 25 this week are Touched by an Angel and Primetime Thursday, the latter drawing viewers with a harrowing account of a woman's battle with breast cancer while stranded in the South Pole.

Elsewhere, CBS' Big Brother II continued to struggle, landing just one spot--No. 23--despite the fact that it airs three times a week.
