NBC remained on top on Monday night, but it was also on the upswing, as The Voice was up two tenths in viewers and the demo. That is a good sign for the performance shows as they usually drop at this point. At 10pm, The Blacklist was up four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo from last week's season low. The Blacklist is really proving its mettle. If you look at this week a year ago, The Voice was much stronger with a 4.4 demo while Revolution could only manage a 2.6 demo (59% retention). But The Blacklist is doing better with a lower lead-in as it had 79% retention this week. The Blacklist appears to be more than just a timeslot hit.

Over on CBS, How I Met Your Mother was down six tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo. That might seem like a big drop but last week was abnormally high so it has settled into where it usually is. At 8:30pm, 2 Broke Girls was up a tenth in viewers and the demo. At 9pm, week two of Mike & Molly was down half a million viewers and three tenths in the demo. It's looking like this isn't going to be any better of an anchor than 2 Broke Girls was. At 9:30pm, Mom was down four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo for a series low. It's still having pretty good retention but the raw numbers are slowly getting worse for this show. At 10pm, Hostages was down three tenths in viewers and even in the demo. CBS announced the season (and most definitely series) finale will air on January 6 with Intelligence launching sooner than planned. It will ave a sneak preview after NCIS on January 7 and settle into its new slot on January 13.

ABC had bad news as Dancing with the Stars sunk nine tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo for a series low. Dancing had never been below a 2.0 demo before but it fell hard. Having the performances and results on the same night has done nothing to help this tired franchise. Doing one cycle a year might though. At 10pm, Castle was down eight tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. Over on FOX, Bones aired its final Monday episode (for now) and was up four tenths in viewers and even in the demo. It will head to Fridays this week to make room for Almost Human. At 9pm, Sleepy Hollow was down a tenth in viewers and up a tenth in the demo from last week's low. How will it fare with Human as a lead-in instead of the reliable Bones?

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...

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...
