Conan's Ratings Are In: Better Than Leno or Letterman

4.2 million people watched the debut of Conan O’Brien’s TBS show Conan last night–good for a 2.8 rating. The entire show is now up on the web too, in case you missed it. Or are too broke to afford basic cable.

Conan’s numbers handily beat Leno’s 3.5 million and Letterman’s 3.4 million viewers–even though Conan starts his show a half-hour earlier. Lets see if he can keep it up.

George Lopez’s midnight debut drew a 1.1 rating after Conan.
