Where were you when the visitors arrived last night? Yesterday’s highly-anticipated debut of V had the best 18-49 performance for any new series this season. Its audience numbers also came in right behind the premiere of NCIS: Los Angeles for freshman programs. Unfortunately, that one show couldn’t carry the whole network. CBS still won in the viewers and had a tight victory in the demos.
8pm
- NCIS (19.4 million, 4.2/11 in 18-49) was the most-watched program last night.
- V (13.9 million, 5.0/13) had the best demos of the evening.
- The Biggest Loser (9 million, 3.4/9) hit its lowest 18-49 mark this season.
- So You Think You Can Dance (6.1 million, 2.4/6) lost 400,000.
- 90210 (1.1/3) clocked in 2.1 million.

Tuesday Ratings: Is Melrose Place Already Over?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Reality, NBC, The CW, Ratings, Video,
Apparently, even a murder-mystery just isn’t enough to keep the viewers coming back. Melrose Place, one of the CW’s most promising new dramas, took a severe ratings tumble in its second week. Could this be the end of sultry twenty-something California living…again?
Melrose fell to below two million viewers despite its hefty 90210 lead-in, getting soundly whipped in its time slot by The Biggest Loser‘s premiere over on NBC. The CW gained around 2.3 million for the Melrose Place premiere a week before, which was well below expectations for the revamped series.
