Last night ABC unveiled their first new TV show of the fall season, Revenge. The network isn’t in bad shape overall but is certainly in need of some new hit shows. So far, it looks like Revenge might be able to help.
In its 10pm timeslot, the new TV series attracted a 3.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 10.15 million viewers (per the fast affiliate numbers). That was enough for Revenge to win its slot in the all-important demographic. The season premiere of CSI (now starring Ted Danson) was the the winner when it came to total viewership.
This was a positive beginning for Revenge but we’ll have to wait until we see the final national numbers, the 15-minute breakdowns, and to see how well it performs next week. Last night’s premiere had a huge lead-in from Modern Family (a 6.0 in the demo and 14.29 million) and next week’s episode won’t have that benefit.
NOTE: Updated season ratings are available.
What do you think? Did you watch Revenge last night? What did you think? What’s your gut instinct? Should the new series continue or do you think it’ll be cancelled after one season?

Revenge is the best show on TV and nothing keeps me from watching it. I look forward to it each week and can hardly wait. Like all the characters and the story line.
Great actors, great plot…very intriguing…but, the inconsistency of ABC in sending the Episodes has been very dissppointing…after complaining on several ocassions to our Service Company…it kind of ruined it for us…still hope it will be continued though!
Great show filled with suspense, and drama..has to be kept
THIS SHOW IS THE BEST IN A ONG TIME!… I STAY UP TO WATCH EVERY WEDNESDAY ITS SO GOOD THAT I MAKE SURE NOT TO MISS IT!
Absolutely love this show can’t wait until next week.
There are few shows that I make a point to watch. However, since Revenge premiered I make sure I don’t miss it on Wednesday night!
i like to give a show several viewings before judging and i must say Revenge had me hooked from the first episode, it’s definitely one of my top 5 favorites this season.
I wrote an opinion and was told ‘under midification’-
What does this have to do with the price of legumes in the hamptons?

I loved it also. The whole revenge theme and the main actress is a very good actress. Madeline Stowe does seem to be aging a little badly but she also pulls off the Lady McBeth role extremely well. I hope this show stays on.
Loved it! I can’t wait to see who and how she is going to get the next person who did her father wrong. Outstanding show! Please keep it!
I LOVED Revenge! The best show to be on TV in a very long time. Intriguing, mysterious, edge of the seat anticipation, juicy subplots–Revenge has it all! Can’t wait to watch again. Hope I don’t miss a single episode.
Love it! I’m hooked! Now ABC don’t be stupid and cancel it before it gets a following!
LOVE this show!!
