“Lost” (9:00-10:00 p.m.)
Despite facing stiff, established time period competition on CBS (“NCIS: LA”) and NBC (“Biggest Loser”), as well as Fox’s “American Idol”-inflated series debut of “Past Life,” ABC self-starter “Lost” shot up from its lead-in by 6.3 million viewers (11.1 vs. 4.8 million) and by 194% in young adults
(5.0/12 vs. 1.7/4) and built its audience from start to finish (+5% in viewers/+6% in young adults). “Lost” dominated the 9 o’clock hour for its 2nd straight telecast in the key young Adult sales demo, defeating second-place CBS’ “NCIS: LA” by 22% (4.1/10), third-place NBC’s “Biggest Loser” by 25% (4.0/10) and fourth-place Fox’s “Past Life” by 79% (2.8/7).
“Lost” qualified as Tuesday’s No. 1 scripted TV show for the 2nd week in a row in Adults 18-49, Adults 18-34 and across key Men (M18-34/M18-49/M25-54).
“Lost” was up from its performance on the same week last year by 1.3 million viewers and by 14% in Adults 18-49 (9.8 million and 4.4/10, Wednesday 9:00 p.m. on 2/11/09).
“Lost” delivered enormous year-to-year time period improvement for ABC, boosting the hour by 6.7 million viewers and by 150% in Adults 18-49 over the year-ago night with original programming (4.4 million and 2.0/5 – originals of “Scrubs”).
Excluding only last week’s sixth-season premiere, “Lost” posted its highest-rated telecast in over 2 years among Adults 18-34 (5.1/14) – since 2/7/08.
