Looks like a congratulations are in order for Mr Arsenio Hall. After more that two decades of not being on the air, the late night talk show host returned with a vengeance. The first show premiered last monday on the CW network beating all the other late show competition in ratings, despite the fact that it came against the powerhouse competition of “Monday Night Football” on ESPN.
According to the New York Times,…”Although the early ratings are limited in reach, and don’t include total viewer totals, they show that Mr. Hall clearly made a dent on Monday. In the 25 cities, “The Arsenio Hall Show” averaged a 1.0 rating in the important category of viewers between the ages of 18 and 49….That rating was bigger in those cities than Jimmy Kimmel on ABC (0.8); Jay Leno on NBC (0.6); or David Letterman on CBS (0.5).In addition, Mr. Hall’s overall rating of a 1.9 almost doubled what the stations in his lineup had averaged a year ago: a 1.0…”
The entire week consisted of a star studded line up, Chris Tucker, Snoop Dogg, and Paula Abdul, Ice Cube, Mac Miller, Magic Johnson, and Nas. Angela Bassett and a host of others.
