Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 10/11/11: Last Man Standout


WHAT MATTERS:
  • ABC got a great series premiere out of Last Man Standing, as this show slightly outshone last year's solid No Ordinary Family debut in the timeslot as well as the debut of fellow ABC comedy Suburgatory from a couple weeks back. The "year of the comedy" meme rocks on, as this becomes the fifth comedy this year to premiere at least as well as the highest-premiering drama. As it stands in prelims, LMS is Truly the season's fourth-biggest series premiere to date, but finals next week could put it past Up All Night (3.67) and behind only 2 Broke Girls and New Girl. The big lead-in also boosted the DWTS results to, in a rarity, a higher rating than the performance show.
  • Fox was weaker than usual thanks to the ALCS, but this didn't stop CBS' lineup from dropping slightly and The Biggest Loser from hitting another new low.
  • On the plus side was the CW's lineup, with Ringer mercifully getting back one tenth after its huge collapse last week.
