Tuesday night had the time period premiere for Fresh Off the Boat on ABC and the results were very promising with a two episode night. Understandably, it dropped big from last week's Wednesday numbers, but it was significantly better than anything Selfie or Manhattan Love Story got in the fall. People sought this show out and that's a win for a tough timeslot on ABC. It also seemed to help the rest of the night a bit. Marvel's Agent Carter was up a tenth in viewers and the demo while Forever was up two tenths in viewers and the demo. Over on FOX, Masterchef Junior fell four tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. Maybe it was the one-two punch of Boat and a stronger NCIS? At 9pm, New Girl was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo while The Mindy Project was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo.

CBS was up across the board. At 8pm, NCIS was up two tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo for its best performance since the season premiere. At 9pm, NCIS: New Orleans was down three tenths in viewers but up a tenth in the demo. Person of Interest closed out the night up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Finally, NBC was barely on the map. Parks and Recreation saw season lows at 8pm as the comedy competition from ABC may have hurt. At 9pm, Marry Me was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo while About a Boy was down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. Chicago Fire is getting no favors from this horrible comedy lineup. It was down two tenths in viewers and the demo. The demo is the lowest since December 2012. If I was NBC, I would just let a repeat air next week and bring this back when The Voice returns to the night. It has a built-in audience but it can only do so much.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Fresh Off the Boat (ABC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Parks and Recreation (NBC)

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...
