Here is a look at Week #9! It is Thanksgiving week which means lots of specials.

CBS
CBS is the network with the most normal lineup this week as they are airing on Thanksgiving Eve and even Thanksgiving itself. They do have the late Thanksgiving game though so their primetime lineup should do OK, at least on the early end.

NBC
NBC has the season premiere of Chicago Med on Tuesday night. Given how it often overperformed on Thursday nights last year, it should be an improvement on Law & Order True Crime. Wednesday has a one off of The Wall while both Wednesday and Friday have specials. NBC has football on Thanksgiving night as usual but it's a pretty uninteresting matchup this year.

TV NEWS & THOUGHTS
- The first of a lot of midseason news, FOX announced that The X-Files will return on Wednesday, January 3 at 8pm and will be followed by the Ryan Murphy drama 9-1-1 at 9pm. The X-Files was a huge hit the last time it was seen in the 2015-16 season.
- NBC will premiere Good Girls on Monday, February 26 at 10pm immediately after the new edition of The Voice and one day after the end of the Winter Olympics. They will premiere the highly anticipated new drama Rise on Tuesday, March 13 at 10pm following the season finale of This is Us. It will then take over This is Us's 9pm slot the following week.
- ABC will premiere a game show, Child Support, hosted by Fred Savage on Friday, January 5 at 8pm as a bridge for Once Upon a Time. It will also have Designated Survivor on a hiatus, to be replaced again this year by Match Game, starting January 3.
- ABC has ordered light crime procedural Take Two straight to series from a Castle executive producer and starring Rachel Bilson and Eddie Cibrian. This is the second light procedural ordered straight to series by ABC, joining The Rookie.
- CBS has handed a full season order to S.W.A.T. after just three episodes that only did modestly. They also ordered three more episodes of 9JKL, which doesn't seem to bode well for its long term chances. They did not make any decision on Wisdom of the Crowd yet, but I'd be surprised if it goes beyond its 13 episode order.
