On Monday night, FOX started things off with Gotham being even with last week. Then Lucifer followed after being off for three months. It was down from its January airings but a significant improvement on APB numbers. On CBS, the reunion of Leah Remini and Kevin James boosted Kevin Can Wait a bit. It was up four tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. At 8:30pm, Man with a Plan was even while Superior Donuts followed and was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. Airing on a special night for its final two episodes of the season, The Great Indoors crashed to a series low at a 0.8. I don't think this show has much of a chance of returning. At 10pm, Scorpion was up half a million viewers and even in the demo. On ABC, Dancing with the Stars was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo while Quantico was up a tenth in viewers and the demo. On NBC, The Voice was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo while the season finale of Taken was even with last week. If this does come back, I can't imagine it for being anything other than a Summer 2018 run. Finally on the CW, Supergirl and Jane the Virgin were both even with last week's low numbers.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Lucifer (FOX)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: The Great Indoors (CBS)
