How the critically-panned sitcom holds up in the coming weeks is the true test, but ABC can at least smile that Tim Allen’s presence still means something in 2011.<\/p>\n

According to ABC, “Last Man Standing” premiered to an impressive 3.5 adults 18-49 rating with 13.0 million viewers. The viewership figure, very large for the present television climate, reflects Allen’s appeal with older viewers, but the 3.5 demo number is nothing at which to sneeze.<\/p>\n

ABC’s press release calls the “Last Man” premiere “TV\u2019s most-watched comedy series opener with an 8PM start on any night of the week since September 2004 and…the top-rated among Adults 18-49 since September 2006.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n"Last Man Standing" Premiere Ratings Look Good for ABC; Tim Allen Draws<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"How the critically-panned sitcom holds up in the coming weeks is the true test, but ABC can at least smile that Tim Allen's presence still means something\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2011\/10\/12\/last-man-standing-premiere-ratings-look-good-for-abc-tim-allen-draws\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\""Last Man Standing" Premiere Ratings Look Good for ABC; Tim Allen Draws\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"How the critically-panned sitcom holds up in the coming weeks is the true test, but ABC can at least smile that Tim Allen's presence still means something\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2011\/10\/12\/last-man-standing-premiere-ratings-look-good-for-abc-tim-allen-draws\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Headline Planet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2011-10-12T15:42:41+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Brian Cantor\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cantorpedia\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@headlineplanet\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2011\/10\/12\/last-man-standing-premiere-ratings-look-good-for-abc-tim-allen-draws\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2011\/10\/12\/last-man-standing-premiere-ratings-look-good-for-abc-tim-allen-draws\/\",\"name\":\"\\\"Last Man Standing\\\" Premiere Ratings Look Good for ABC; Tim Allen Draws\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2011-10-12T15:42:41+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2011-10-12T15:42:41+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\"},\"description\":\"How the critically-panned sitcom holds up in the coming weeks is the true test, but ABC can at least smile that Tim Allen's presence still means something\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2011\/10\/12\/last-man-standing-premiere-ratings-look-good-for-abc-tim-allen-draws\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/\",\"name\":\"Headline Planet\",\"description\":\"Music News & Charts, TV News & Spoilers\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\",\"name\":\"Brian Cantor\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Brian Cantor\"},\"description\":\"Brian Cantor is the editor-in-chief for Headline Planet.
