On Tuesday night, NBC reverted back to its regular lineup. At 8pm, The Voice was down six tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo for a season low in a regular slot. The comedies rebounded a little at 9pm from their last airing two weeks ago, but were still pretty weak. Marry Me was up half a million viewers and two tenths in the demo while About a Boy was up seven tenths in viewers and four tenths in the demo. The best news came at 10pm where Chicago Fire was down 1.3 million viewers but just a tenth in the demo from last week, when it followed The Voice and had a crossover story line with the Wednesday dramas. CBS rebounded with less NBC competition. At 8pm, NCIS was up six tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo. NCIS: New Orleans was up a strong 1.9 million viewers and three tenths in the demo. The viewer total was the best since the series premiere. At 10pm, Person of Interest was up eight tenths in viewers and also three tenths in the demo.

On ABC, a Shark Tank rerun of 8pm was an improvement over Selfie. I wonder if ABC will let Selfie air at all in this slot to finish out its run? At 9pm, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was up three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Forever closed out the night up two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. It's not really earning its full season yet. Finally on FOX, Masterchef Junior came back a bit after two very strong weeks to open its season. It was down six tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo. At 9pm, New Girl was down two tenths in viewers but up a tenth in the demo from last week despite the lower lead-in. It was just a tenth off of Marry Me despite a lead-in that was more than a full demo point lower. The Mindy Project closed things out down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Chicago Fire (NBC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Forever (ABC)

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...
