As FTVLive told you, exactly one year to the day that Ann Curry was pushed out at the Today Show, NBC let her air her first prime time special. 

"Ann Curry Reports" aired on Friday night in the spot that was where "Rock Center" had been airing, before NBC pulled the plug on it.

Curry interviewed Richard Norris — the man who received the most comprehensive face transplant to date.

How'd she do in the ratings? 

Her numbers beat what Rock Center was getting!  In fact her primetime special won the demo for Friday night.

The showed almost 6 million viewers and pulled 1.9 rating in the demo, which was more than double what Rock Center pulled the week before.  

Take that Matt Lauer!
