Robert Neville is a brilliant scientist, but even he could not contain the terrible virus that was unstoppable, incurable, and man-made. Somehow immune, Neville is now the last human survivor in what is left of New York City and maybe the world. For three years, Neville has faithfully sent out daily radio messages, desperate to find any other survivors who might be there. But he is not alone. Mutain victims of theplague – The Infected — lurk in the shadows…watching Neville’s every move…waiting for him to make a fatal mistake. Perhaps mankind’s last, best hope, Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus using his own immune blood. But he knows he is outnumbered…and quickly running out of time.

George Clooney stars as Michael Clayton, a “fixer,” the go-to guy when his powerful New York law firm wants a mess swept under the rug. But now he’s handed a crisis even he may not be able to fix. The firm’s top litigator in a $3-billion case has gone from advocate to whistleblower. And the more Michael tries to undo the damage, the more he’s up against forces that put corporate survival over human life – including Michael’s.

ABC’s Dancing With the Stars returned to give ABC a big boost, drawing an audience nearly identical to the series’ last new season premieres, and giving the network a comfortable first place finish among total viewership and adults 18-49.

CBS, however, managed to get a good chunk of the viewing audience last night thanks to impressive numbers (especially among adults 18-49) from its returning comedy series’ The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother and Two and a Half Men (which helped to boost its lead-out The New Adventures of Old Christine by a an impressive 1.83 million or 19% among viewers and 26% among adults 18-49).

Elsewhere on the evening, NBC dropped to third place, though the performance of its lineup was mostly on par with the week prior, with the exception of My Dad Is Better Than Your Dad which sank by 2.13 million or 31% among viewers and 29% among adults 18-49.

On Fox, Canterbury Law lost a significant portion of its already low series premiere numbers from the week prior, but New Amsterdam was less affected.

And lastly, The CW’s new season of Pussycat Dolls Presents continues to prove that the series was just a one-hit wonder, as it failed to attract much more than 1.5 million viewers.
