On day three of this year’s syndication premieres, CBS’ The Doctors remained at the head of the rookie class.

NBC Universal’s Deal or No Deal -- the first to premiere of this season’s two new game shows -- slipped 17% Wednesday to a 1.0/3. Over the first three days, the show averaged a 1.2/3, up 29% over its year-ago time-period average on the nine NBC owned-and-operated stations.

Warner Bros.’ The Bonnie Hunt Show is holding steady with a three-day average of 1.0/4, with the show’s rating unchanged from Tuesday to Wednesday.

Sony’s Judge Karen fell 18% Wednesday to a 0.9/3, maintaining its three-day average and putting it just ahead of Program Partners’ Family Court with Judge Penny, produced by 44 Blue, which fell 11% Wednesday to a 0.8/3, matching its three-day average.
