CBS gives full-season orders to Vegas and Elementary

Shows are #1 and #2 among new network programs for the season

CBS announced Tuesday afternoon that it's ordered "back nine" episodes (which will make full season orders) to television's top two freshman series — Vegas and Elementary.

“Vegas and Elementary have opened strong, delivering big audiences and winning performances in important time periods,” said Nina Tassler, CBS Entertainment's president.  “Each of the shows hasrich characters, big stars and a unique visual style that have stood out in the crowd, helping make two of our strongest nights even stronger.”

Vegas, which stars Randy Quaid and Michael Chiklis, is the #1 new series of the season and ranked sixth overall.  It's a winner in its Tuesday time period in viewers and key demographics and has improved the year-ago time period by 8 percent in viewers.

Elementary, starring Jonny Lee Miller, Lucy Liu, Aidan Quinn and Jon Michael Hill, is the #2 new series of the season, ranked ninth overall. Like Vegas, it wins its Thursday slot in the key ratings measures, up 17% in adults 18-49 and 10% in adults 25-54.
