Record Breaking TV.

Raising the Bar premiered on TNT in the US last month and attracted 7.7 million viewers, making it the most-watched series premiere on commercial cable. The show beat the previous record set by USA Network's The 4400 with 7.4 million and the 2005 debut of TNT's The Closer with 7 million.

Created by Steven Bochco, who developed such classics as Hill Street Blues, L.A. Law and NYPD Blue, it might just be the methadone that The Wire addicts have been looking for.

The question is, how long until it gets to the UK and the rest of the world?
