A Heroic debut

Heroes managed a terrific 2.1m average for its debut episode, soundly firing off the first salvo of Seven’s 2007 American drama acquisitions.

It was the best figure for a drama debut since Lost (2.3m).

Seven has scheduled an Encore (aka repeat) of both Heroes and Prison Break (1.2m) next Tuesday evening from 10.30pm.

Next week House is back to provide some serious competition. Nine and the ABC should be worried….
