TV Land's comedy "Hot in Cleveland" has shown real ratings heat in its premiere, emerging as Wednesday's most-watched show on cable.
The Nielsen Co. said Thursday that the episode's first airing attracted nearly 5 million viewers, with 2.4 million viewers tuning to its encore broadcast immediately afterward.
The much-publicized new series stars 88-year-old Betty White along with fellow sitcom veterans Valerie Bertinelli, Jane Leeves and Wendie Malick (MA' lihk).
