Get a load of that Anthony Anderson -- finally has a hit show.
The early numbers for his new Fox drama series 'K-Ville' were stellar, drawing 9 million viewers during its Sept. 17 premiere.
According to early Nielsen data, the post Hurricane Katrina New Orleans based cop drama won the night's coveted 18-49 year old demographic, beating out its competition on all three major networks -- including NBC's 'The Singing Bee.'
'K-Ville' even outperformed the wildly popular third season premiere of 'Prison Break,' which was its lead in. The Wentworth Miller-fronted drama drew an estimated 7.4 million viewers -- down nearly two million viewers from the opener last year.
Kudos to the Los Angeles-born funnyman who previously headlined the short-lived WB comedy 'All About the Andersons' and starred in films such as 'Barbershop 2' and 'Two Can Play that Game.'

A.A, finally scored big time. The show might not be "appointment television" for some, but really, what does qualify as such these days. The show depicts a heterosexual black male in a positive light: strong, nuturing, moral and reliable, all without being a "court jester". That's an "appointment" I, for one, have been waiting for network television to keep for a very long time. BigUps! Anthony, and good luck!

Big Ups Anthony!
I found this show, just wonderful enough to be my Monday night joint. Just enough action, just enough compassion, just enough scenes of reality to keep the plight of New Orleans on our collective minds. Bravo!
