THE WEEK AHEAD: February 25-March 3, 2019

Here's a look at Week #23!

ABC
Following the Oscars, ABC has an all new week with the series premiere of Whiskey Cavalier on Wednesday. It will be the same episode that was previewed after the Oscars last night, but will air in its regular timeslot. This week also has the season premiere of American Idol on Sunday night and I have a feeling it will be underwhelming. There are also two season finales for Thursday dramas A Million Little Things and How to Get Away with Murder. Million has already been renewed for next season and while its ratings have been very low this year, I think Murder will get renewed as well.

MONDAY
8:00 The Bachelor
10:00 The Good Doctor

TUESDAY
8:00 American Housewife
8:30 The Kids Are Alright
9:00 Black-ish

CBS
CBS has a mix of new episodes and repeats. The decision to air three hours of The World's Best this week looks pretty foolish after it posted a terrible 0.6 demo last week.

MONDAY
8:00 The Neighborhood
8:30 Man with a Plan
9:00 Magnum P.I.

NBC
NBC has a busy week with the return of The Voice with new coach John Legend on Monday and Tuesday night. Monday will lead into the series premiere of The Enemy Within, which has had a ton of promotion in recent weeks though I don't think it will come close to Manifest's 2.2 demo premiere from the fall. Tuesday has the season premiere of the former summer show World of Dance before it heads to anchor Sunday nights, where it leads into a new season of Good Girls. This week also has the season finale of The Titan Games.

FOX
Despite premieres and finales all over the place, the biggest event of the week is likely to be The Masked Singer on Wednesday night, which I think could easily see a 3.0 demo or above, something not often season in 2018-19. FOX also has season finales of Tuesday dramas Lethal Weapon and The Gifted.

TV NEWS & THOUGHTS
- CBS has renewed Young Sheldon for two more seasons. The sophomore comedy is likely taking over the 8pm Thursday slot from the show it spun off from, The Big Bang Theory, next season and this is a show of good faith. But we've yet to really see how it will do without the mothership in front of it. That won't be known until the fall.
