9:30 Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Well the Super Bowl lead-out slot did absolutely nothing to help New Girl and Brooklyn Nine-Nine as both shows were down from their last regular airings. First up on FOX was Dads which was down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. It actually beat Brooklyn in the demo as this show hasn't quite gotten the credit it maybe deserves for the way it has held steady this season. At 9pm, New Girl was down three tenths in viewers and the demo to tie a series low. Brooklyn Nine-Nine aired in its new timeslot after New Girl and was down a rough 1.4 million viewers and half a demo point. An 8:30pm repeat did almost as well so maybe FOX would have been better off leaving it in its original timeslot. On NBC, an Olympics special did OK at 8pm while the two hour season finale of The Biggest Loser aired from 9-11pm. It was up nine tenths in viewers and half a demo point from last week's 8pm episode. However, it was down half a demo point from last year's finale so this show is still looking a little tired. NBC was definitely smart to keep it to one edition per year. 

Over on CBS, NCIS started things off down two tenths in viewers but up a tenth in the demo for its best demo since October 15. At 9pm, NCIS: Los Angeles was up four tenths in viewers and a strong four tenths in the demo for its best demo since the season premiere. Will next year finally be the year this show is on the move? At 10pm, Person of Interest was down a tenth in viewers but up a tenth in the demo for its best demo since November 26. On ABC, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returned after two weeks of repeats and it was up two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. After dropping rapidly for several weeks, this show has leveled off in the last two months. At 9pm, The Goldbergs was up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo while Trophy Wife was down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. At 10pm, Killer Women was down half a million viewers and even in the demo. It will burn off two more episodes during the Olympics then it's done.

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...

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...

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...
