They didn't.. That's the data for the two Monday night episodes. Friday was lower, like 1.1 or something.
I posted a trend line in the Friday string, which is excerpted below along with my cogent analysis:

Now seeing the full set of numbers, I echo my observation from the Thursday thread that Canterbury's Law did better than most probably expected for a series so hastily transplanted from Mondays at 8 pm to Fridays at 9 pm (not listed in paper-based tv guides), and retaining 94% of the Bones viewers and 86% of her young adult demo.
Mr. Reilly is a man of demonstrated patience when it comes to quality series trying to build an audience (Friday Night Lights, 30 Rock), and I have no reason to believe he is still not open-minded about the future of this moody, atmospheric legal meller.

Who would've thought this would find an audience on Fridays. Now all Fox has to do is give it a bit more promotion. They could really get somewhere this week.
