Emily Owens bowed to 1.7 million viewers and a 0.5 in the adults 18-to-49 demographic, building on Hart of Dixie's lead-in audience (1.3 million, 0.6), but it was down more than 50 percent compared to Ringer's debut, which premiered mid-September last year in the same timeslot. However, Dixie and Owens' premiere numbers combined for The CW's most-watched Tuesday since Nov. 29, 2011, despite going up against a debate. Its latest outing drew 1 million viewers and a 0.3.
CW has already picked up Arrow and Beauty and the Beast for full seasons, while Cult and Carrie Diaries will debut midseason.
