It was a busy Sunday night but only two shows went above the 2 demo. On ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos started things off up nine tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo for its best performance since January 5. Not bad at all for a late April 7pm showing. At 8pm, Once Upon a Time proved that last week's Easter dip was an aberration as it went back up 1.3 million viewers and half a demo point. That must be a sigh of relief for ABC. The news was not nearly as good for Resurrection as it was up four tenths in viewers but down two tenths in the demo for another series low. It has now dropped almost two full demo points since its March 9 premiere. At 10pm, Revenge was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. On FOX, Bob's Burgers was up a strong eight tenths in viewers and half a demo point. It's trying its best with the horrible position FOX has put it in. American Dad! was even in viewers and up a tenth in the demo. The Simpsons was down a tenth in viewers and the demo and Family Guy was down four tenths in viewers and even in the demo. Finally, Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey was dead even with last week despite a much better lead-in.

On CBS, 60 Minutes was up 1.5 million viewers and two tenths in the demo. This show still does very well with total viewers, even when it doesn't have a football lead-in. At 8pm, The Amazing Race was up eight tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. The Good Wife was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo while The Mentalist was down a tenth in viewers and two tenths in the demo to tie a series low. Not a good time for this show to be going to series lows as many consider its chances of coming back very very small. Nothing topped a 1.0 demo on NBC's pathetic lineup. American Dream Builders was up three tenths in viewers and even in the demo. Dateline NBC was up 2.1 million viewers and two tenths in the demo. Believe was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo while Crisis was up three tenths in viewers and even in the demo.

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...

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...
