Tuesday Final Nationals: ‘Prison Break’ on Fox Returns with Decent Performance in Young Demos

CBS again led Tuesday night in total viewers (11.28 million) and adults 25-54 (2.1 rating/6 share). The network also matched NBC for the lead among adults 18-49 (1.3 rating) but NBC earned the edge over CBS in adults 18-49 share (5.1 vs. 4.9).

Fox won adults 18-34 (1.0/5), due to the fifth season premiere of “Prison Break.” It ranked as the No. 1 telecast in all of television on the night in adults 18-34 (1.4/6) and No. 3 in adults 18-49 (1.5/5). It also defeated CBS’s “Bull” within the 9-10 p.m. hour among those same young demos.

The episode outdrew and out-rated each of the five final episodes of Prison Break’s fourth (and then, final) season back in the spring of 2009 — those episodes, though, had been moved to Friday nights.
