On Tuesday night, Bones signed off of FOX after 12 years. It was up eight tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo for a small finale bounce. This is a show that hung around too long but it got a final go-round for the longtime fans. FOX doesn't need Bones anymore but they could definitely use a show that is a utility player like Bones was for so long. Earlier in the night for FOX, New Girl was up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo while The Mick was up a tenth in viewers and the demo. It was a solid night for CBS. At 8pm, NCIS was up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Bull aired a new episode for the first time in nearly a month and was up half a million viewers and even in the demo for a sixth straight episode. At 10pm, NCIS: New Orleans was down eight tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo from its two hour episode that aired two weeks ago.

On NBC, The Voice was down six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. After an OK second week, it was not a good third week for Trial & Error. The new comedy was down two tenths in the demo for the 9pm episode and three tenths in the demo for the 9:30pm episode to a weak 0.8. I know The Voice is getting weaker each week but this needs to be doing than a 0.8 demo just half an hour after The Voice. At 10pm, Chicago Fire was down half a million viewers and a tenth in the demo to tie a series low last set in February 2015. On the CW, The Flash was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo to tie a series low while DC's Legends of Tomorrow was down a tenth in viewers and the demo. Finally on ABC, the last scheduled airing of People Icons was down 1.1 million viewers and two tenths in the demo. Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns to this slot next week.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Bones (FOX)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Trial & Error (NBC)

EPISODE GUIDES: That 70s Show Season Seven

On Thursdays, I go through classic series with a critical look at each season. Today I am looking at Season Seven of  That 70s Show ! THAT 70s SHOW: SEASON SEVEN 2004-2005 25 episodes The seventh season of  That 70s Show  is the final season with Topher Grace as a series regular and also the final full season for Ashton Kutcher. Despite still having both of those cast member, the show finds itself flailing especially with Topher Grace's Eric, who is stuck in a terrible arc for most of the season. The show also brings many characters back at one point or another but everything just feels tired. This season actually graded out the worst for me. Even worse than the often maligned final season (more on that next week). Every title this season is named for a Rolling Stones song. Starring Topher Grace as Eric Forman  (25 episodes) Mila Kunis as Jackie Burkhart  (25 episodes) Ashton Kutcher as Michael Kelso  (25 episodes) Danny Masterson as Steven Hyde  (25 e...

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...
