Monday night had the season premiere of Dancing with the Stars and the results weren't that promising as it was down significantly from last fall's 3.1 premiere (and that was also a week before the season starts and without competition from The Voice). It looks like Dancing may be taking a step back again after last spring's surprise numbers. Next week, it has to face The Voice, Gotham/Sleepy Hollow, and an hour of The Big Bang Theory. Elsewhere, NBC had decent numbers for an American Ninja Warrior special while the season finale of Masterchef was up slightly for FOX. Finally on CBS, Under the Dome was up four tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo ahead of next week's season finale.
