Tuesday night was pretty rough for NBC. At 8pm, The Voice was down a tenth in viewers and the demo for another season low. Once again, The Voice is slipping pretty badly as the edition goes on. At 9pm, About a Boy was down six tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo for a new series low. This was a pretty rough drop for a show that's been building a lot of goodwill. It really calls into question if it can do anything at all without The Voice lead-in. Growing Up Fisher was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo for a new series low as well. For a show on the bubble, this wasn't a good showing. At 10pm, Chicago Fire was not impacted as it was up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. 

On ABC, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. started out the night even in viewers and up two tenths in the demo. After its early slide, it has been very stable for several months now. At 9pm, The Goldbergs was up three tenths in viewers and the demo. Not only did it beat New Girl but it also beat About a Boy for the first time. Just when it looked like it was slipping again with its 1.4 demo last time, it had a nice rise again. Put this show on Wednesdays already! At 9:30pm, Trophy Wife was up four tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. The rise shouldn't matter for a renewal at this point. Celebrity Wife Swap did not follow the upward trend as it was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo.

On CBS, NCIS recovered nicely from its season low as it was up two tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo from its last airing. At 9pm, NCIS: Los Angeles did not follow suit as it was up a tenth in viewers but even in the demo. Person of Interest was up six tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo at 10pm. Will NCIS: Los Angeles or Person of Interest be on the move next season? Because it seems certain that one of them will. On terrible FOX, Glee was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. New Girl was even in viewers and down a tenth for another series low. The news is just getting worse by the week for this show. It was almost beat by The Mindy Project for the first time until it adjusted up in the finals. The Mindy Project was up a tenth in viewers and 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...
