The fifth season premiere of Ghost Whisperer won the 8pm hour for CBS with 8.58m, while the premiere of Law & Order delivered 6.29m for NBC. An encore of FlashForward took 4.55m for ABC, the series premiere of new Fox comedy Brothers had 2.82m, and the season premiere of Smallville appealed to just 2.5m on The CW.
At 10pm, the season premiere of Numb3rs logged an impressive 7.92m for CBS. ABC was second, with 7.11m for 20/20, while NBC’s The Jay Leno Show averaged 5.68m.
