‘Supergirl’ Surpasses CBS Expectations

The Maid of Might outperformed CBS’s previous forecast!

It seems like the daring adventures of Supergirl will continue. CBS released their Live+3 ratings (numbers taken from DVR devices of television shows 3 days after the original airdate) for the premiere, which added an additional 3 million viewers to the original number from last week of around 13 million viewers. This puts the viewership at 16.3 million.

The Live+3 ratings also saw a rise in viewership for adults age 18-49, bringing the Girl of Steel’s first flight to a 4.1 rating in that demographic.
