‘Lost’ return = great ratings
“Lost” found big ratings for ABC -- big being a relative term in this fragmented era -- and led the network to victory the first night of February sweeps.
Last night’s 9 p.m. season premiere got the series’ best Nielsens in a year, averaging 6.7 in adults 18-49; NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice” and CBS’ “CSI” managed just 2.8 each. Even the “Lost” recap hour at 8 p.m. earned a 4.9, handily beating Fox’ “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?” at 3.1.
Thursday’s “Lost” season premiere drew a total of 16 million viewers. (An estimated 8.3 million watched CNN’s Democratic debate between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.)
