Tuesday night brought a lineup of special programming to CBS but the classic Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show were down big year to year even though the numbers were still good. ABC started with a special episode of Shark Tank but it was below its usual Friday numbers which probably means that ABC was smart to leave it exactly where it is for midseason. The comedies were up a bit but still low. Happy Endings was down a million viewers but up two tenths in the demo and Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 was even in viewers and up three tenths in the demo. Finally, Private Practice was up two tenths in viewers and down a tenth in the demo.

On NBC, The Voice was down a tenth in viewers and three tenths in the demo. Go On followed and was up six tenths in viewers but down a tenth in the demo. The good news is that this show has stabilized despite what The Voice does and it beats the competing comedies, but it will be interesting to see what happens when it doesn't have the big lead-in. At 9:30pm, The New Normal was up six tenths in viewers and even in the demo. At 10pm, Parenthood was up half a million viewers and even in the demo despite much tougher competition than usual from CBS.

FOX had a horrible outing with its comedies as every single show was down. At 8pm, Raising Hope was down two tenths in viewers and a big four tenths in the demo for a season low. Ben and Kate was down two tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo and it's a complete dud with a 1.1 demo. At 9pm, New Girl was the best of the block and even in viewers but down three tenths in the demo. The Mindy Project is perhaps the most disappointing of the bunch. It was down a tenth in viewers and two tenths in the demo and it can barely top Ben and Kate despite a much better lead-in. Yikes, this night is a big problem for FOX.
