ABC's 'Fresh Off the Boat' Scores Solid Debut
Posted in: Uncategorized
The twin-bill premiere of ABC’s family comedy “Fresh Off the Boat” earned solid sampling Wednesday night, securing its place as the season’s No. 2 broadcast comedy debut.
According to Nielsen fast national data, the 8:30 p.m. showing of “Fresh Off the Boat” delivered 7.93 million viewers and a 2.5 rating in the all-important adults 18-49 demo. That premiere performance was topped only by ABC’s own “Black-ish,” which bowed to a preliminary 3.3 rating on Wednesday, Sept. 24.
The first installment of “Fresh Off the Boat” improved on its “The Middle” lead-in by 14% and trailed only Fox’s “American Idol” (3.1) in the half-hour.
