'V' debuts big for ABC

ABC's sci-fi remake 'V' debuted to big numbers for the alphabet network on Tuesday night.

The show snagged a 5 rating in the 18-49 age group, the best numbers for any comedy or drama series introduced this fall.

In total viewership, the show attracted 14 million viewers, which was below the 18.7 million that the CBS drama 'NCIS LA' attracted for its premiere. But that show, a spinoff, benefited from following its parent show, 'NCIS,' on Tuesday nights. The 'V' performance was more impressive because as an 8 p.m. show it pulled in the audience all on its own.
