Tuesday night had the addition of Dancing and Rudolph to the night. ABC had the 17th edition finale of Dancing with the Stars on but first up at 8pm was Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which was up 2.8 million viewers and two tenths in the demo. The viewer total is the best since the series premiere while the demo is the best in over a month. The huge jump in total viewers seems to suggest there is more crossover audience with NCIS, which was not on, than we may have thought. At 9pm, the season finale of Dancing with the Stars was a big improvement for the time period but down big from last fall's 3.0 demo and even last spring's 2.7 demo for the finales. Of course it hasn't aired on Tuesdays all season so that may play a factor too but this show continues to be on the decline. 

CBS started with the classic holiday special Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, which was up slightly from last year's presentation. It was on par with the NCIS demo but skewed way younger. At 9pm, NCIS: Los Angeles was down 2.7 million viewers but just a tenth in the demo. At 10pm, Person of Interest was down four tenths in viewers but up two tenths in the demo for its best demo in over a month. Los Angeles and Interest held up well without the NCIS lead-in. On NBC, The Biggest Loser started things off up a tenth in viewers and the demo. The Voice was down 1.3 million viewers and two tenths in the demo for a season low. At 10pm, Chicago Fire was down six tenths in viewers but up two tenths in the demo despite the lead-in being down.

Every single show on ABC, CBS, and NBC was above a 2.0 demo Tuesday night but nothing on FOX was. At 8pm, Dads was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo. This show is starting to look much weaker than Brooklyn Nine-Nine when it comes to the two struggling freshmen. At 8:30pm, Brooklyn was up three tenths in viewers and even in the demo. At 9pm, New Girl was up two tenths in viewers and the demo as it regained a little bit of ground from the bad series lows it's been hitting. At 9:30pm, The Mindy Project was up three tenths in viewers and two tenths 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...

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...
