Is 'Terra Nova' the Highest-Rated New Drama of the Fall Season?

Is 'Terra Nova' the Highest-Rated New Drama of the Fall Season? Following last week's premiere, things weren't exactly looking great for Fox's new drama "Terra Nova."

The sci-fi dino show premiered its $5 million pilot to 9 million viewers and about a 3.1 in the 18-49 demo, which are decent numbers but nothing special, and certainly not what Fox had hoped for considering the show's price tag.

But the Live+same day ratings aren't everything, folks, and sometimes you have to take more factors into consideration... especially in the digital age, when people have the option to watch shows pretty much whenever they want.

So, according to Deadline, the Live+3 ratings (which include DVR and repeat viewings for three days after the premiere) are much healthier for the show. The new numbers have "Terra Nova" rated at a 4.1 instead of a 3.1. That makes "Terra Nova" the highest-rated new drama of the fall season, believe it or not.

Granted, there's still the problem of lackluster reviews and a viewer response that is, for lack of a better term, a little blah. The second episode airs tonight, and whether the show gains or loses viewers over last week will be telling as to its fate.
