“X Factor” still isn’t doing “Idol” business, but it tied “Grey’s Anatomy,” which is nothing at which to sneeze.
“Charlie’s Angels” beat “Community” and tied “Parks.” Week two will decide if it lasts longer than ABC’s “My Generation.”
NBC’s “Whitney” did not do as well as “Outsourced” did with a 3.5 in that slot last year. “Prime Suspect” gave NBC the worst fall Thursday series premiere in its history.
CBS and Bad Robot’s “Person of Interest” bowed in fourth place behind “X,” “Grey’s” and “Office,” turning in a roughly “CSI”-size audience.
The CW’s “Vampire Diaries” and “Secret Circle” fell in their second weeks.
