Fox’s hit musical drama Glee took a ratings hit in its third-season premiere Tuesday, falling 29 percent in the 18-49 demographic compared to last year’s season opener.Glee still pulled in a very healthy 4.0 rating (and 8.6 million viewers) and it was the top-rated show in the 8 p.m. time slot among younger viewers 18-34. But it’s nevertheless a surprising dip for a series that became an overnight phenomenon two years ago and has since generated millions of iTunes downloads and spawned a concert tour, a 3D movie and a reality spinoff (Oxygen’s The Glee Project).
Many industry insiders acknowledge that Glee went off the tracks creatively last season. But Fox executives have expressed confidence that co-creators Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk have achieved a course-correction this season(source)
