On Sunday night, FOX had the NFL overrun for a second week. The animated lineup that followed didn't get interrupted by a presidential address this week, but it didn't seem to make much of a difference as the lineup did very similar numbers. At 8pm, The Simpsons was up half a million viewers and a tenth in the demo. At 8:30pm, Brooklyn Nine-Nine was down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. It is now on the move back to Tuesdays after its year and a half run on Sundays. At 9pm, Family Guy was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. The Last Man on Earth closed things out down four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. It will be replaced by Bordertown in January and does not currently have a slot on the midseason FOX schedule. On NBC, a Patriots blowout of the Texans was up a bit from last week's game (also a blowout).

ABC didn't cross the 1.0 demo threshold until the 10pm hour. At 7pm, America's Funniest Home Videos was up nine tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. Instead of Once Upon a Time, ABC aired a special about the classic Disney movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, but it was largely ignored. At 9pm, the season (and most certainly series) finale of Blood & Oil was down a tenth in viewers and a tenth in the demo. The viewer total was a series low and the demo tied a series low. The fall finale of Quantico had a good showing as it rose two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo despite having nothing as a lead-in all night. It will come back in March when it will follow new drama The Family. CBS had an OK night with no direct NFL lead-in. 60 Minutes was up two million viewers and four tenths in the demo. Madam Secretary was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo and The Good Wife was up six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. At 10pm, CSI: Cyber was down four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Quantico (ABC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: CSI: Cyber (CBS)

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...
