Solid Premiere For CBS’s ‘Mad Love’

Mad Love had an OK premiere on CBS last night, sandwiched between two of the network’s stronger shows, How I Met Your Mother and Two and a Half Men, though it was the network’s lowest-rated sitcom of the night. The new romantic comedy averaged a 3.0 adults 18-49 rating at 8:30 p.m., retaining 81% of Mother‘s 3.7 rating at 8 p.m.
