Monday night had the return of Mike & Molly to the CBS lineup. But first at 8pm, How I Met Your Mother had a big jump of nine tenths in viewers and four tenths in the demo for its best numbers since the season premiere. I'm not really sure what explains this huge jump but it's a great showing. At 8:30pm, 2 Broke Girls was up four tenths in viewers but down a tenth in the demo. Considering how much its lead-in was up, this is a disappointing performance. Season four of Mike & Molly began at its new 9pm time and the results were adequate enough. At first glance, it seems like it might be a better anchor than 2 Broke Girls was. At 9:30pm, Mom was up eight tenths in viewers but down a tenth in the demo, tying a series low. This is also a disappointing performance as it seems like Mike & Molly is a better companion. At 10pm, Hostages was down a tenth in viewers and the demo for a series low. This show is just riding it out at this point. 

On NBC, The Voice was down 1.4 million viewers and seven tenths in the demo in a very disappointing showing for its first live show. At 10pm, The Blacklist was down two tenths in viewers and the demo for a series low. While it dipped below a 3 demo for the first, it had its best retention yet out of The Voice so that's worth noting. Over on ABC, Dancing with the Stars was up four tenths in viewers but down a tenth in the demo. At 10pm, Castle was up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. FOX started out with Bones  down six tenths in viewers and two tenths int he demo. It has one more Monday week before it moves to Friday. At 9pm, Sleepy Hollow was new for the first time in three weeks but it was down half a million viewers and two tenths in the demo for a series low. This show seems to be following a very similar path as The Following.

SEASON IN REVIEW: 2017-18 Miscellaneous Awards

As usual, I am ending the season with a few miscellaneous awards. The blog will be quiet this summer but I will continue to do the week ahead posts with broadcast TV news as it happens this summer. Then I'll be back for previews, pilot reviews, and more in the fall! BEST RETURNING COMEDY Superstore (NBC) - Superstore was awarded my "Best Returning Comedy" last year, but it only got better in season three. The funniest ensemble on TV took another step forward with some truly hilarious moments (the season premiere, the Golden Globes party, and the Christmas episode to name a few) and some major plot points moving forward. It also has the potential to be surprisingly sentimental at times. I think back to the first year of the show and how I felt like it had so many funny elements but didn't always bring it completely together. Well now it does on a weekly basis and it is one of those shows that just seems to be in the sweet spot of what will hopefully be a long run. ...

EPISODE GUIDES: Happy Days Season Five (Part 1)

On Thursdays, I take a detailed and critical look at a TV show by season. Today I am looking at Season 5 (Part 1) of  Happy Days ! HAPPY DAYS: SEASON FIVE 1977-1978 27 episodes Season Five is the year where Fonzie infamously jumps the shark. It happens at the beginning of the season and while  Happy Days  does eventually decline in quality, it is not this season. In fact, this season graded out slightly higher than the previous season even though it doesn't feel as strong. I think that's because there's not a lot of outright stinkers in this season. It's a very solid season with the show continuing to hum along. There are some signs of the troubles to come but it doesn't happen on a regular basis in the fifth season. Starring Ron Howard as Richie Cunningham  (27 episodes) Henry Winkler as Arthur Fonzarelli  (27 episodes) Tom Bosley as Howard Cunningham  (27 episodes) Marion Ross as Marion Cunningham  (27 episodes) Anson Williams as Potsie Webber  ...

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...
