There was mostly new episodes with some specials and repeats on Sunday night. On ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos was up three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo from its last new airing. At 8pm, Once Upon a Time was down seven tenths in viewers and four tenths in the demo, hitting series lows. This was the first sizable drop but it's still a good performance all and the drop isn't too surprising with the end of Thanksgiving Weekend. The first Hallmark Hall of Fame movie to air on ABC was low in the demo just like on CBS but the total viewership was much worse too. It doesn't seem like the Hallmark brand fits on ABC. A NFL overrun lasted nearly an hour for CBS thanks to an overtime game in San Diego. 60 Minutes immediately followed except on the West Coast and was up a nice 2.5 million viewers and eight tenths in the demo. The Amazing Race was even in viewers and up a tenth in the demo.


Over on NBC, the Sunday Night Football tilt between the Chiefs and Steelers was up slightly from last week's Eagles-Giants game. Over on FOX, the cartoons were all down from last week to season lows as this lineup is really struggling this year. First off, The Cleveland Show was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. The Simpsons followed down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. At 8:30pm, Allen Gregory slipped another seven tenths in viewers and a rough four tenths in the demo for series lows. Should FOX even air the two final episodes made? This show is a huge bomb. At 9pm, Family Guy was down half a million viewers and four tenths in the demo as it is falling apart this season. Finally at 9:30pm, American Dad! was down three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo.

EPISODE GUIDES: Rhoda Season Five

On Thursdays, I go through classic series with a critical look at each season. Today I am looking at Season Five (the final season) of  Rhoda ! RHODA: SEASON FIVE 1978 13 episodes Rhoda' s final season was a truncated one as the show was cancelled in December 1978 after only 13 episodes had been produced (and only nine had aired). This feels like a continuation from season four in many ways except with the ill-advised split between Ida and Martin (more on that below). While  Rhoda  has an occasional good moment and even a couple decent episodes, it is a show that seems so wildly different from season one and not in a good way.  Rhoda  could never figure out what it fully wanted to be and only made it four and a half seasons as a result. Starring Valerie Harper as Rhoda Morgenstern  (13 episodes) Julie Kavner as Brenda Morgenstern  (13 episodes) Ray Buktenica as Benny Goodwin  (11 episodes) Kenneth McMillan as Jack Doyle  (9 episodes) Nancy Wa...

SCHEDULES OF THE PAST: 1995-1996 Thursdays

On Tuesdays, I take a look at schedules from yesteryear. Here's a look at Thursdays in the 1995-96 season! ABC 8:00 8:30 9:00 10:00 Sep Charlie Grace The Monroes Various Programs Oct Murder One Nov Various Programs Dec Various Programs Thursday Night Movie Jan Feb World’s Funniest Videos Before They Were Stars! Mar Apr May NBC was the powerhouse on Thursday nights but ABC still gave it the old college try in the Fall of 1995 with a trio of new dramas that they hoped would help them cut into the Peacock's dominance. Headlining their night was Murder One , a high profile new show from Steven Bochco that received much of the network's attention before the season started. The series focused on one murder case for an entire season, whi...

DECADE IN REVIEW: The Best Comedies of the 2010s

During the month of December, I will be looking back at the decade that was the 2010s on TV. I will be sharing my favorite sitcoms, dramas, the best episodes, the best performances and the worst shows of the decade. To be eligible for this list, a show had to air the majority of its episodes in the 2010s. However, for the rankings and determination, all episodes were taken into account, including ones that may have aired before 2010. I will also preface that there are comedies that have aired this decade that I haven't watched yet so this is the best of what I have watched. To be fair, that preface is more true for dramas. There's not a ton of unwatched comedies sitting in my Netflix or Amazon watchlist. So here are my Top 10 comedies of the 2010s! Close Calls:  Master of None (Netflix) - An inconsistent but occasionally fascinating commentary on many life issues done so with innovative storytelling. The Good Place (NBC) - A show that aims high with a fascinating premis...
