Monday night was another good one for ABC. At 8pm, The Bachelor was down a tenth in viewers and the demo but still very strong. At 10pm, Castle was up nine tenths in viewers and even in the demo. CBS had a pretty bad night by comparison as everything was down. At 8pm, How I Met Your Mother held up the best as it was down just three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Rules of Engagement was down three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. 2 Broke Girls was up a tenth in viewers but down two tenths in the demo for a season low. For whatever reason, Mike & Molly was hit the hardest as it was down half a million viewers and a rough half a demo point for a season low. I'm not sure why this was down so hard compared to the others.
 
FOX had a solid night as well as Bones was up three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo to lead off. Then at 9pm, The Following was up two tenths in viewers and down a tenth in the demo as it held up well again this week. I think it's safe to call this show a hit now but I said that a couple weeks ago then it had a dramatic drop before climbing back. Finally on NBC, The Biggest Loser was up a tenth in viewers and the demo as it will most likely be the top demo for NBC this week. At 10pm, Deception was up two tenths in viewers and even in the demo.
