“The Restaurant” retained a strong 88 percent of its 18-49 lead-in from “Law & Order: Criminal Intent.” Among adults 18-34, “The Restaurant” built on its “Criminal Intent” lead-in by a powerful 12 percent (with a 2.9 rating vs. a 2.6).
From its first half-hour to its second, “The Restaurant” closed the gap on CBS’ special competition, a “CSI” rebroadcast, cutting the “CSI” lead down from 10 percent to 3 percent from half-hour to half-hour.
