On Sunday night, the Golden Globes with hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler aired on NBC and were up nicely from last year and easily dominating the evening. Meanwhile on ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos started off the night down three tenths in viewers and even in the demo from its last new airing back on December 9. Against the Golden Globes, the dramas took a hit as Once Upon a Time was down nine tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo while Revenge was down nine tenths in viewers and four tenths in the demo for a season low. The 9:30pm half hour dipped below a 2 demo which is troubling even against the Globes. The comedies at 10pm did even worse than last week's horrible numbers and this week's airing of them has been mercifully pulled. 

CBS started with mammoth numbers for a football overrun which led into 60 Minutes which was up a huge 4.5 million viewers and 1.9 demo points. It probably would have been even higher without the Golden Globes on. At 9pm, The Good Wife was even in viewers and up a tenth in the demo while The Mentalist closed out the night down three tenths in viewers and even in the demo, holding up well against tougher competition. FOX was down across the board without a direct NFL lead-in but particularly notable was Bob's Burgers being just a tenth behind The Simpsons in the demo.

EPISODE GUIDES: That 70s Show Season Seven

On Thursdays, I go through classic series with a critical look at each season. Today I am looking at Season Seven of  That 70s Show ! THAT 70s SHOW: SEASON SEVEN 2004-2005 25 episodes The seventh season of  That 70s Show  is the final season with Topher Grace as a series regular and also the final full season for Ashton Kutcher. Despite still having both of those cast member, the show finds itself flailing especially with Topher Grace's Eric, who is stuck in a terrible arc for most of the season. The show also brings many characters back at one point or another but everything just feels tired. This season actually graded out the worst for me. Even worse than the often maligned final season (more on that next week). Every title this season is named for a Rolling Stones song. Starring Topher Grace as Eric Forman  (25 episodes) Mila Kunis as Jackie Burkhart  (25 episodes) Ashton Kutcher as Michael Kelso  (25 episodes) Danny Masterson as Steven Hyde  (25 e...

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...

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...
