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)
