It was a quiet Friday night of premiere week with only a few shows having their premieres. CBS was the only network that was fully new. At 8pm, The Amazing Race was up a tenth from last fall's premiere. At 9pm, Hawaii Five-0 sprung a bit of a leak with a new series low. If this keeps up, this could be the final season for Hawaii. At 10pm, Blue Bloods was also up in the demo from last fall's premiere. Race and Bloods are the first shows to grow in the demo from this same week a year ago. The total viewer count for Bloods was lower than usual though. ABC had the season premiere of Last Man Standing tying a series low. It's not a great start but let's see what it does when the full ABC lineup is new. This show usually starts in October so fans may not have realized it was back. After a repeat of the pilot of The Muppets, Shark Tank was back at a fairly weak 1.7, which was still tops of the night. We'll see what happens when Dr. Ken joins this lineup next week.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Blue Bloods (CBS)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Hawaii Five-0 (CBS)
