After a couple days of positive ratings news, it was a weaker day for most scripted offerings on Thursday. The CW premiered its new Thursday lineup. At 8pm, DC's Legends of Tomorrow had a pretty weak 0.6 demo but it got better at 9pm where 12 year veteran Supernatural built on its lead-in and tied FOX and ABC in the hour with a 0.8 demo. On ABC, it was another week with Grey's Anatomy as the only show above or near a 2.0 demo. It was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. At 9pm, Notorious was also down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo to a horrible 0.8 demo. I thought maybe we would read tonight that this show had gotten yanked or moved to 10pm but that hasn't happened yet. At 10pm, How to Get Away with Murder was down four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo for a series low.

On NBC, Superstore and The Good Place were both down eight tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. At 9pm, Chicago Med was the only show that aired last week and didn't drop this week as it was even with last week. On Thursdays, even is the new up! At 10pm, The Blacklist was down half a million viewers and a tenth in the demo for a series low. It was a really ugly night for FOX as Rosewood was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. At 9pm, Pitch was down six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. After a couple OK weeks, this was a pretty ugly week for Pitch as it turned fractional for the first time and didn't build on its lead-in for the first time. Nothing on FOX Tuesday or Thursday was above a 1.0 demo. Finally on CBS, the Broncos-Chargers game was up from last week's Cardinals-49ers game but could have been impacted by a big baseball game.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Supernatural (CW)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Pitch (FOX)
