The finale of Cupid delivered 9.50 million potential (and disappointed) wedding guests, the largest audience for the summer series and placed first in the time period in the adults 18-49 demographic (4.1 rating, and an 11 share) and second in households (6.3/10), viewers, adults 18-34 (3.8/11) and adults 25-54 (4.4/10, -0.1 behind ABC).

With ABC's John Ritter Tribute being considered a news special for ratings purposes, Cupid was the highest rated entertainment program of the night among adults 18-49, women 18-49 and women 25-54.

Cupid posted CBS's highest ratings for a regularly scheduled program in the Tuesday 9:00-10:00 PM time period in adults 18-34 and women 18-34 since 9/4/01 and in adults 18-49 and women 18-49 since 10/23/01.
