'Harry's Law' ratings put on trial; 'Cape' slips

David E. Kelleys latest legal drama Harrys Law got off to a fine start Monday night in the ratings.
I object! you say. Granted, the show drew a healthy 11 million viewers, but it earned a mere 2.1 adults 18-49 rating. How can you say thats a fine start?
Allow me to present some evidence: NBCs previous show in this time slot, Chase, averaged only a 1.5 rating. Harrys Law grew from its The Cape (6.2 million, 1.8; recap here) lead-in and ranked in second place at 10 p.m. Plus, it gave NBC its biggest non-Olympics audience in this slot in more than a year. Therefore, given the context (and ratings are all about context), ladies and gentlemen of the EW.com jury, I would say Harrys Law had a fine start.
But, you counter, opening a briefcase and pulling out a ratings chart. This shows that Harrys Law was, in fact, NBCs lowest-rated in-season premiere ever in this time period.

Wait until the civil war when these “oh so sad, not really bad” black Youts come into the Lily white suburbs and start grabbing the Libs food and clothes and jewlry!
these Libs have NOOOOOO clue what they are up against.this is going to make Watts look silly.
You got it bro!!
They had better not try that stuff in this neighborhood, even the few (one family) dems that live around me are well armed.
I have a feeling there will suddenly be “enclaves” that are armed. It would be great to have loudspeakers playing the Pepsi song about the “world”.ha.Or Beatles “Imagine”.
I wonder how it will work out with blacks and hispanics each defending their own neighborhoods against roaming thugs.
We shall see, won’t we!
Be Ever Vigilant!
