On Tuesday night, the CBS lineup was new for the first time since January 19 and all three shows returned very stable. NCIS was down six tenths in viewers and even in the demo. NCIS: New Orleans was down seven tenths in viewers and even in the demo. Limitless was up a tenth in viewers and the demo.Things are getting dire for ABC Tuesdays. The lone decent spot remains Fresh Off the Boat, but it was down a million viewers and two tenths in the demo to tie its series low. Of course, it was four tenths above anything else on ABC. The Muppets was down another tenth in viewers and the demo to a horrible 0.8 demo. At this point, ABC should just yank it and run Boat reruns until The Real O'Neals premieres. At 9pm, Marvel's Agent Carter was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. What Would You Do? was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo to a horrible 0.6.

Just like CBS, NBC had a very stable night. Hollywood Game Night was down three tenths in viewers and even in the demo. Chicago Med was down half a million viewers but even in the demo and Chicago Fire was down a tenth in viewers but even in the demo for a fourth straight week. Finally on FOX, the revitalized New Girl remains the bright spot in the FOX lineup. It was up two tenths in viewers and even in the demo and was again well ahead of the rest of the lineup, which was close to last week. Grandfathered was down a tenth in viewers and the demo, Brooklyn Nine-Nine was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo, and The Grinder was up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: New Girl (FOX)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: What Would You Do? (ABC)
