We are finally back to some ratings news after the sleepy end of December. ABC brought back midseason smash The Bachelor and it was just a tenth below last year's season premiere. This continues to be a beast so many years into its run. A Jimmy Kimmel special about The Bachelor was an improvement in the demo on Conviction. On the other side of the spectrum, The New Celebrity Apprentice returned on NBC and did not do very well despite lots of promotion. It's been a couple years, but the Donald Trump incarnation did far better than this Arnold Schwarzenegger version. Still, it should be serviceable enough as a filler for The Voice. At 10pm, a special airing of The Wall did about as well as Timeless with a much lower lead-in. Finally, CBS didn't get the January boost they usually do, at least with their Monday lineup. Kevin Can Wait was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. Man with a Plan was up four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo from its last airing, which aired at 9pm. 2 Broke Girls was up nine tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo while The Odd Couple was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. At 10pm, Scorpion was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: The Bachelor (ABC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: The New Celebrity Apprentice (NBC)
