Apparently, no one wants to get in bed with CW’s “Jane the Virgin” — at least not in the advertiser-sought 18-49 demographic, anyway. The critically well-received new drama dropped to just a 0.4 rating on Monday night; it pulled in about 1.1 million total viewers.
For CBS, “2 Broke Girls” premiered to a 2.4 rating — down 14 percent from last season’s opener — and 8.7 million viewers.
NBC was first in ratings with a 3.3 rating/9 share in the key demo and second in viewers with an average of 11.3 million, according to preliminary numbers. “The Voice” at 8 p.m. earned a night-high 3.6/10 and had 12.1 million viewers. “The Blacklist” at 10 received a 2.6/7 and 9.8 million viewers.
