Fox just responded to a TV ratings emergency with new insta-hit series “9-1-1,” which now owns television’s highest-rated Wednesday series premiere in more than a year. With the benefit of 72 hours-worth of delayed viewing, “9-1-1” has hauled in 10.5 million total viewers — that’s up 54 percent in the three days since the Ryan Murphy show started. The last series premieres to pull in more eyeballs were Fox’s “Lethal Weapon” and ABC’s “Designated Survivor,” which both began on September 21, 2016. Among adults 18-49, the Peter Krause-Connie Britton-Angela Bassett vehicle jumped 50 percent, growing from a solid 1.8 in Nielsen’s.
