On Tuesday night, it was CBS on top. NCIS was up four tenths in viewers but down a tenth in the demo. At 9pm, NCIS: New Orleans had a very good week as it rose eight tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo for one of its best non-crossover performances this season. At 10pm, however, Limitless was down four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo to tie a series low. This show shouldn't get a renewal as it has cooled down majorly after a good start. NBC has been holding up very well on Tuesdays without The Voice, but it had a down night this week. Hollywood Game Night was even in viewers but down two tenths in the demo, tying a series low. Chicago Med was down three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo for a series low. Chicago Fire was down six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo.

On ABC, Fresh Off the Boat was the only show besides New Orleans to rise from last week. It was up four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. At 8:30pm, The Muppets was down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. A two hour Marvel's Agent Carter was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo to a new series low. Performances of shows like Muppets and Carter contributed to the ousting of ABC President Paul Lee earlier this week. Finally on FOX, everything was down. New Girl was down three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. Grandfathered was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo to a new series low. Brooklyn Nine-Nine was down a tenth in viewers and the demo. The Grinder was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Both the 9pm hour shows tied series lows in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: NCIS: New Orleans (CBS)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Limitless (CBS)
