On Wednesday night, CBS had a DOA premiere with Doubt. The new drama skewed very old and was completely ignored in the demo with a 0.8. So will CBS replace this or Training Day with Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders before the season ends? And this can't be bad news for Code Black, which routinely was doing at least a little bit better than this in the same slot. Earlier in the night, Hunted was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo while Criminal Minds was up six tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. On NBC, Blindspot had an ugly week, dropping half a million viewers and two tenths in the demo for a new series low. This might be the final nail in the coffin for Blindspot. At 9pm, Law & Order: SVU was down nine tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo from last week's 400th episode. Despite the two tenths drops for the first two dramas, Chicago PD was up four tenths in viewers and even in the demo.

On ABC, three comedies were steady but centerpiece Modern Family had an ugly drop. First up, The Goldbergs was up three tenths in viewers and even in the demo while Speechless was up a tenth in viewers and also even in the demo. Then came Modern Family, which was randomly down four tenths in viewers and a rough three tenths in the demo to tie a series low. I'm not sure what happened here or why it dropped so hard when everything around it was steady but I do think it'll get into the 1st for the first time ever sometime this season. At 9:30pm, Black-ish was even while Match Game was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo. On FOX, Lethal Weapon was up a tenth in viewers and a tenth in the demo while Star was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo. Finally on the CW, Arrow and The 100 were both up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Chicago PD (NBC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Doubt (CBS)
