Selleck drama leads Friday nights

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 26 (UPI) -- Tom Selleck's new television drama "Blue Bloods" on CBS led Friday night in the ratings, The Hollywood Reporter said.

The report said "Blue" had 12.8 million viewers, up 22 percent from the debut of "Numbers" in the time period last year.

"Blue" also beat its own lead-in, "CSI:NY." The Reporter said the switch from Wednesdays to Fridays resulted in a drop of 50 percent from its premiere last fall.

Overall, CBS won the night, the report said.

"Blue" rolled over NBC's "Outlaw," which had 5 million viewer, at 10 p.m.
