Court TV displayed additional momentum heading into the next quarter with a record-setting March for Adults 18-49 (390,000) in primetime -- a best ever figure for March, since the network began being measured by Nielsen.

Court TV RED (Real, Exciting, Dramatic), the network's new action strip, premiered in the Monday-Friday 8-9pm hour and ranked 8th in the quarter, among all ad-supported basic cable networks in its time period for Adults 18-49 (.4).

Court TV's Men 18-49 primetime audience (180,000) and total Men audience (429,000) were best-ever quarterly figures, and marked increases of +16% and +8%, respectively, over year-ago deliveries.

Court TV's 1st quarter prime was led by its original signature series. Premiere episodes of Forensic Files, Dominick Dunne's Power, Privilege and Justice, Psychic Detectives and The Investigators delivered an average 1.0 household rating and 1,035,000 total viewers.
