Who needs Batman?
Fox's big-swing crime drama Gotham opened to very strong ratings Monday night. Gotham premiered to 8 million viewers and a strong 3.2 rating among adults 18-49.
Gotham - the story of heroic Det. Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) fighting iconic DC Comics villains and protecting a young pre-Batman Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) - was predicted to have fall's biggest opening by industry insiders. It's far too early to give Gotham that crown, but 3.2 is considered a very good demo number, especially for 8 p.m. Among total viewers, CBS' Madam Secretary, which opened Sunday night, has the fall lead.
Fox debuted Gotham right up against back-to-back episodes of TV's biggest comedy, CBS' The Big Bang Theory, which predictably exploded - 17.9 million viewers for the hour and a 5.3 in the demo. Much more to come...
