Here's a look at Week #16!
ABC
ABC starts the week off with the return of TV's #1 new drama, The Good Doctor. It has to face off against the College Football Championship on ESPN but that seems like it could be a different audience. Still, if The Bachelor is soft like last week, a series low wouldn't shock me. The Mayor was pulled off the schedule so another Modern Family repeat takes its place. Another Truth and Lies special airs on Thursday ahead of the return of TGIT next week.

CBS

NBC
NBC has its schedule back in full force this week with the return of The Brave and This is Us. This is Us should have a big return on Tuesday especially with the surprisingly huge performance for Ellen's Game of Games. Friday night has the season premiere of Taken, which should have a very quiet debut.

FOX
FOX had a solid start to its January with three series premieres that ranged from strong to acceptable. The key will be how LA to Vegas, 9-1-1, and The Four do in week two. FOX is choosing to let Bob's Burgers air after The Simpsons instead of Ghosted following the NFL playoff game.

TV NEWS & THOUGHTS
- ABC has cancelled The Mayor, pulling it off the schedule effective immediately. The show may finish out its run at a later date but make no mistake, it's a cancellation.
- New Girl will have its seventh and final season premiere on FOX on Tuesday, April 10 at 9:30pm. It will air its one hour series finale on May 15 at 9pm.
- FOX renewed The Gifted for a second season as announced this week during the TCA Winter Tour. The Marvel show started strong but has had ever decreasing ratings. Still, it will get another season from FOX. The trend is definitely hard core going in the wrong direction for this show though.
- Scandal and How to Get Away with Murder will have a crossover episode later this season. I'm usually a fan of crossovers but this is a dumb idea. I'm sure it will get ratings but these shows don't take place in the same universe. It feels incredibly gimmicky.
- CBS has given a second season to Young Sheldon. Being the #1 new show, this was never in doubt but it's earlier than CBS usually hands out renewals.
