Broadcast TV Ratings for Thursday, January 31, 2008 February 1, 2008 2:17 pm

Lost returned strongly Thursday night, as the season four premiere succeeded in attracting a large audience. Though off from its season three premiere, the show rebounded significantly from last season’s finale, improving by 16% or over 2 million viewers and 14% among adults 18-49.

There’s some cause for concern in the second half drop, but the network had mostly good news in the series premiere of Eli Stone, which won its hour and performed stronger, and held better retention from Lost, than did the networks last show to premiere out of Lost (The Nine).

That concluded ABC’s sweep of the night (the 8:00 pm Lost clip show also won its hour).

Elsewhere on the night, CBS aired repeats, which put it in second in overall audience, but fourth among adults 18-49. Fox got its usually solid performance out of its two game shows ‘5th Grader’ and ‘Lyrics’ (the network was second on the night among adults 18-49) and NBC slid a bit against stiffer competition.

Over on The CW, the network did well last night, as Smallville and Supernatural each returned on par with their last newly aired episodes.
