NBC's three show crossover with Chicago Fire, Law & Order: SVU, and Chicago PD paid off handsomely for them on Wednesday night. First up, a special edition of The Voice at 8pm was well below Monday and Tuesday levels, but a big improvement over what The Mysteries of Laura usually does here. Then at 9pm, Law & Order: SVU was up a huge three million viewers and eight tenths in the demo. It was the strongest of the three in the crossover. At 10pm, Chicago PD was up 3.3 million viewers and eight tenths in the demo, tying a series high in the demo and hitting it outright in viewers. This is the show that probably stands to gain the most, but it has yet to prove it can be much  of a player when it's not crossing over with another show. On FOX, Hell's Kitchen was up two tenths in viewers and the demo. Could the success of Masterchef Junior on Tuesday be weirdly helping this show? At 9pm, Red Band Society was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo.

Over on ABC, The Middle was up 1.1 million viewers and a tenth in the demo while The Goldbergs was up six tenths in viewers and down a tenth in the demo for a season low. The viewer totals were stronger than usual in the 8pm hour. At 9pm, Modern Family was down a tenth in viewers and three tenths in the demo for a season low. Black-ish held up pretty well as it was up a tenth in viewers and down two tenths in the demo. Nashville closed thing out up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. Finally, CBS had a pretty good night even with the increased crime drama competition from CBS. At 8pm, Survivor was up two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. This show is as steady as they come. At 9pm, Criminal Minds was up six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo as it can handle a stronger SVU better than the CMAs. The news was not as good at 10pm where Stalker was down another three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. If all the 10pm shows are in roughly the same territory for CBS, this will probably be the odd one out.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Law & Order: SVU (NBC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Stalker (CBS)

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...
