TV Ratings Report: Rush Hour Premieres DOA
Paul Dailly at .CBS's long delayed drama, Rush Hour, finally made it to the air last night, but it pulled in disastarous ratings.
It pulled in just 5.1 million and a 1.1 rating among people 18-49. That number is in line with what Elementary was doing in the slot earlier this season, but these number are disappointing for a new show.
Earlier in the night for CBS, The Big Bang Theory slid to 14 million and a 3.4 rating, but two episodes of Life In Pieces slid further to 7.5 million viewers and a 1.8 rating. 2 Broke Girls was steady with 5.7 million and a 1.6 rating.
And elsewhere around the dial:
- On The CW, Legends of Tomorrow (2.1 million/0.7 rating) was even, but The 100 (1.3 million/0.5 rating) ticked up.
- On ABC, Grey's Anatomy (7.8 million/2.2 rating) and Scandal (6.5 million/1.8 rating)ticked up, but The Catch (5 million/1.0 rating) dipped from its weak premiere.
- On Fox, American Idol (9.1 million/2.0 rating) surged.
- And on NBC, it was the finales of You Me & The Apocalypse (2.8 million/0.6 rating) and Shades of Blue (5.4 million/1.1 rating).
