I'm not a Sex and the City fan, so perhaps that biases me somewhat, but 1) I feel like the CW promos aren't making the SatC connection as much as I'd expect; and 2) even if they were, I'd be dubious about that connection's ability to draw viewers to the CW. Apart from that, though, what Carrie does have going for it is the reviews. I have not seen it, but I got a sorta vaguely positive vibe over the last few weeks. And once its TCA panel hit yesterday, it became apparent that there are a lot of people who really enjoy this and feel it nails that "old-school WB" vibe. So I don't see a huge premiere in the offing, but the reviews and a touch of SatC nostalgia should help the premiere significantly improve upon the usual Monday occupants. I mean, that's not much to ask, right?
Over/Under: 0.85.
