On Monday night, things were pretty close to average for most shows. On CBS, How I Met Your Mother started things off down four tenths in viewers and even in the demo. At 8:30pm, the second week of 2 Broke Girls in the 8:30pm slot was down six tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. After an improved The Big Bang Theory, Mom was down a tenth in viewers but up three tenths in the demo for its best showing since the series premiere. This was an impressive performance from Mom which has been extremely compatible with whatever has been in front of it this season. It looks like it earned its full season. At 10pm, Hostages was dead even in viewers and the demo for a third week in a row.

Over on ABC, Dancing with the Stars was up four tenths in viewers but down a tenth in the demo while Castle was down half a million viewers and three tenths in the demo. I'm not sure what explains Castle swinging up and down lately. On NBC, The Voice was down two tenths in viewers and the demo. The Blacklist was down half a million viewers but even in the demo for the first time all season as it has stabilized and is looking more and more impressive especially with its huge week two DVR gains reported. Finally on FOX, the wedding episode of Bones was up three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. This was to be the final Monday showing of Bones but it will now get two additional Mondays paired with Sleepy Hollow because Almost Human's planned November 4 debut was pushed back to a two day debut starting after football on November 17.

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...

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...
