TV NEWS & THOUGHTS
- ABC has handed a full season order to The Rookie. The Tuesday cop drama has done okay in its difficult slot. It has basically performed similarly to other ABC 10pm dramas A Million Little Things and How to Get Away with Murder.

- ABC also handed full season orders to Tuesday comedies The Kids Are Alright and Splitting Up Together. It will be a full 22 episode season for Kids, but 18 episodes for Splitting. Still, this is a vote of confidence for the Tuesday lineup as a whole and ABC didn't have much comedy on the bench. It seems likely that Schooled will replace The Conners as everything else has a full season now on Tuesday and Wednesday.

- NBC announced plans for Thursdays at midseason. FOX transplant Brooklyn Nine-Nine will premiere on January 10 and take over the Thursdays 9PM timeslot following The Titan Games, which will now air on Thursdays instead of Wednesdays (presumably to keep #OneChicago in tact all season). The Good Place will follow at 9:30pm for three weeks and then Will & Grace will take over the 9:30pm slot starting January 31. Superstore will go on hiatus and return in March (not confirmed but likely with the new Abby's). Meanwhile, freshman comedy I Feel Bad will not get a back order. It's not officially cancelled, but that's obviously pretty close to a final nail in the coffin.

- Continuing NBC midseason plans, The Blacklist will have its season premiere on Friday, January 4 at 8pm with a two hour episode. It will settle into its 9pm timeslot the next week.

- ABC has yanked The Alec Baldwin Show off of Sunday nights and will burn off episodes on Saturdays starting in December. This is essentially the first cancellation of the season and Baldwin's recent arrest didn't help matters. Repeats of Shark Tank will take over the 10pm slot.

- The CW handed extended episode orders to all three freshmen dramas. Charmed will get a full season of 22 episodes while All American and Legacies have gained three additional episodes each. All three dramas have had positive and negative ratings moments.

- In an unsurprising move, NBC announced the cancellation of the low-rated summer drama Reverie.
