Elementary Lands Plum Post-Super Bowl Timeslot

Lucy Liu and Jonny Lee Miller

Elementary's ratings are about to see one heck of an uptick.

CBS' freshman drama, which follows a modern-day Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) and his distaff Watson (Lucy Liu), has landed the coveted post-Super Bowl timeslot on Sunday, Feb. 3, the network announced Monday.

CBS orders more Vegas and Elementary

Elementary, which is slated to air at 10/9c on Super Bowl Sunday, has been dominating Thursday nights for CBS, averaging 14.2 million viewers and a 3.5 in the 18 to 49 demographic, ranking as the No. 2 new series on TV this season behind CBS' Vegas (with 14.5 million viewers).

The 2012 Super Bowl on NBC drew 111.3 million viewers, which boosted its post-Bowl fare, The Voice, to 37.6 million viewers, 47 percent better than the post-Super Bowl airing of Glee in 2011.
