Overnight ratings bode well for geeks everywhere (from tv.com):
Jack Bauer is not superhuman, but he has superhuman competition.
Last night, Fox's 24, which returned last week for its sixth season, faced off against NBC's new hit Heroes, which returned with its first new episode in a month. When the dust settled, both shows were still standing, Heroes just a bit taller.
The face-off proved both shows can survive. Heroes scored a 6.5 rating/15 share in 18-49s, with 14.8 million average viewers, according to Nielsen, while 24 snagged a 5.4 in 18-49s, with 14.4 million viewers.
Full story here.
Surprised Heroes won? I'm not. Both episodes were solid, but Heroes had more hype to build on after being off for a month. FOX gorged us on 24 last week.
What worries me is CSI: Miami's continued trouncing of my beloved Studio 60. (6 share for CSI, 3.2 for Studio). Aaron Sorkin's awesome (David Caruso not so much) and no one realizes it.
