On Thursday night, NBC aired a one hour season finale of The Good Place. It was up three tenths in viewers and even in the demo. I think it has done enough to get renewed especially with a well received twist last night. If it doesn't, it seems like a streaming service could come calling. At 9pm, Chicago Med was down half a million viewers and a tenth in the demo. The Blacklist was down three tenths in viewers and even in the demo to end the night. ABC was supposed to bring back TGIT last night but it was pushed to next week so a 20/20 special could air at 10pm. The lineup will return next week. On FOX, Hell's Kitchen was down a tenth in viewers and up a tenth in the demo. It is a huge improvement on Rosewood in this slot. At 9pm, My Kitchen Rules was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo from last week's premiere.

Finally on CBS, The Big Bang Theory aired a new episode after a repeat last week. It was down 1.6 million viewers and two tenths in the demo from its last new episode. However, it did bring up the rest of the comedy lineup, which fell following a repeat Big Bang last week. At 8:30pm, The Great Indoors was back up six tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo. Mom was up 1.2 million viewers and a nice four tenths in the demo. Life in Pieces actually hit a season high as it was up a million viewers and three tenths in the demo. At 10pm, Pure Genius was up a tenth in viewers but down a tenth in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Life in Pieces (CBS)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Pure Genius (CBS)
