From TVbytheNumbers:

The super heroes of No Ordinary Family premiered with ABC’s best new series rating so far this fall, a 3.1 for adults 18-49. That was down 40% from the premiere of the shooting star that was V, but the first rookie debut to not immediately go on the critical list for them. Dancing With The Stars: Results fell 16% vs. last week to a 3.7 adults 18-49 rating.

Glee’s 5.8 adults 18-49 rating (Britney Spears aided!) was up 4% from last week to a series high. Last night’s Glee was Fox’s highest rated Fall live-action comedy telecast in eight years among Adults 18-49 (since 10/29/02, That 70?s Show) and nine years among Total Viewers (since 11/18/01, Malcolm in the Middle).
