Fox's new latenight skein fronted by Wanda Sykes is off to an encouraging start, with Saturday's bow outperforming the net's delivery with "Mad TV" in the timeslot a year ago.

The premiere of "The Wanda Sykes Show" averaged 2.2 household rating/5 share in Nielsen's metered-markets from 11 p.m. to midnight, up 16% from "MAD's" fourth-quarter average meters (1.9/4) and double what Spike Feresten's show did last winter (1.1/2).
