On Tuesday night, the This is Us monster kept rolling on NBC. The drama phenom was up half a million viewers and a tenth in the demo. The viewer total was a series high and the demo total tied a series high. It will return on January 10 and could break a 3.0 demo during the highly viewed January month. Earlier in the night, The Voice was down four tenths in viewers and even in the demo while the 100th episode of Chicago Fire ended the night down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. On CBS, NCIS was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Bull was up eight tenths in viewers and even in the demo and NCIS: New Orleans was up nine tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. The latter two dramas may have been up in total viewers because they faced the Dancing with the Stars finale the last time they were new.

It was a weak night for the ABC family comedies with everything down. The Middle, The Real O'Neals, and Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. tied series lows while American Housewife hit a series low outright in the demo. Only Fresh Off the Boat was spared from that. Compared to last week, The Middle was down half a million viewers and two tenths in the demo, Housewife was down half a million viewers and a tenth in the demo, Fresh was down three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo, O'Neals was down two tenths in viewers and the demo, and Marvel was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo. On the CW, The Flash was down 1.1 million viewers and three tenths in the demo from last week's big crossover but it was still on the high end of its performances this year. At 9pm, No Tomorrow was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. Finally on FOX, all three shows were even in the demo. In total viewers, Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Scream Queens were even while New Girl was down a tenth for a new series low.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: This is Us (NBC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: American Housewife (ABC)

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...

DECADE IN REVIEW: The Best Comedies of the 2010s

During the month of December, I will be looking back at the decade that was the 2010s on TV. I will be sharing my favorite sitcoms, dramas, the best episodes, the best performances and the worst shows of the decade. To be eligible for this list, a show had to air the majority of its episodes in the 2010s. However, for the rankings and determination, all episodes were taken into account, including ones that may have aired before 2010. I will also preface that there are comedies that have aired this decade that I haven't watched yet so this is the best of what I have watched. To be fair, that preface is more true for dramas. There's not a ton of unwatched comedies sitting in my Netflix or Amazon watchlist. So here are my Top 10 comedies of the 2010s! Close Calls:  Master of None (Netflix) - An inconsistent but occasionally fascinating commentary on many life issues done so with innovative storytelling. The Good Place (NBC) - A show that aims high with a fascinating premis...
