FRINGE 1.02 Ratings UP 4 mil from Pilot

Well there is something you don’t see every day. The fast track overnight ratings for last night’s episode of FRINGE (1.02 “The Same Old Story”) were BIGGER than the numbers for the Pilot:

FOX stayed on top at 9 p.m. with “Fringe,” 8.2/13, which, with the help of its lead-in, gained about 4 million viewers over its premiere last week. Hour two of “The Biggest Loser,” 5.3/8, moved NBC into second. The finale of “Big Brother 10,” 4.9/8, finished third for CBS. ABC stayed in fourth with the conclusion of “Wipeout,” 3.4/5, and a “Primetime” special on UFOs, 3.2/5. “Privileged” finished the night for The CW.

Whether it was due to the HOUSE lead-in, or because of all the positive reviews this week, or as evidence that EVERYONE had already seen the pilot due to the leakage of the unfinished version - that’s just pretty durn awesome. CONGRATS BR PEEPS!!
