Marlon Has Solid Premiere For NBC

Despite being delayed by the network, Marlon started off pretty solid for NBC.

The comedy series starring Marlon Wayans, launched with a 1.3 demo rating – the highest rating among 11 new or returning scripted series on the Big 4 this summer. Compared to NBC’s timeslot demo average this summer, Marlon measured 63% better. The series followed America’s Got Talent which  continued to outperform its year-ago pace, clocking 2.1 compared to 1.8 for last year’s first live Wednesday results show.
