Actually, it attracted 23.6 million viewers (a 14.6 rating and a 23 share):
Though that was still quite good - especially by today's standards. But what was best was that it won the entire night's highest 18-49 demographic rating. Though, of course, those people are 37-68 now (or possibly even dead ) - and, as I've mentioned in other topics, for the most part the movie industry could care less about anyone over 50, and only slightly more so those 35-49 (they lust after 18-34 and also 12-17 - groups that largely comprise people who weren't even born or were too young when the '91 series was on). The industry will still accept our money - but for the Depp/DS film to be a big hit, it has to appeal to whole new audience...
