Ratings low for premiere

The premiere episode of the FOTC checked in with 1.2 million viewers, which is considered pretty low, even for a show on a premium cable channel. Apparently the entire HBO lineup is suffering from a post-Sopranos hangover.

As we wrote earlier, the fact that the premiere episode had been available online for a few weeks, couldn't have helped.

We don't think it's time to panic, just yet. Judging from the enthusiastic reception from bloggers and the overall good reviews from the critics, we expect FOTC to be one of those shows that builds a very loyal, dedicated audience.

Hell, we didn't start watching Sopranos until the third season.
