'True Blood' delivers another season high

Trueblood09 HBO's gothic vampire drama "True Blood" keeps growing.

"Blood" grew its audience for the sixth consecutive week -- which is pretty remarkable, especially for a cable show in the middle of the fall broadcast-dominated season.

Sunday's episode hit 2.7 million at 9 p.m., an 85% increase from the season premiere.

For those who aren't yet weary of Vince and boys, HBO's "Entourage" also hit a season high Sunday night (2.1 million, 1.3 rating).

Also: Comedy Central's "Jeff Dunham's Very Special Christmas Special" gave the network its most-viewed telecast in the network's history with 6.6 million viewers. He's a ventriloquist, by the way.

Can't be the best news for Jon Stewart or the "South Park" guys. You put out episodes for years, get tons of accolades, millions of fans ... and then a ventriloquist breaks your viewership records.
