Ratings Breakdown:
ABC opened this fourth Monday in March on a typically winning overnight note care of “Dancing With the Stars,” which scored a 9.4 rating/15 share in households from 8-10 p.m. Last week, a 9.8 in the overnights for “Dancing With the Stars” translated into 14.16 million viewers and a 2.1 rating/7 share among adults 18-49 (based on the Live + Same Day data), so the show is still very healthy. But competing “The Voice” on NBC, which trailed with a 7.9/12 in the overnights, owns the night in all the key young adult demos, and its advantage will remain significant. As for this season of “DWTS,” it is obviously all about Rumer Willis.
Tops in the 10 p.m. hour was “NCIS: Los Angeles” on CBS, with a 5.8/10, which was 76 percent above failed year-ago occupant “Hostages” (3.3/ 6 on 3/24/14). “Castle” on ABC, which is beginning to show its age, followed with a 5.5/ 9 (down 15 percent from the 6.5/11 one year earlier). And in the distant No. 3 spot was “The Night Shift” on NBC (3.4/ 6), which held only 43 percent of the 9:30 p.m. portion of “The Voice” (7.9/12). Another episode of “The Night Shift” is scheduled tonight at 10 p.m. opposite “Forever” on ABC and “Person of Interest” on CBS.
Earlier in the evening on CBS were sitcoms “2 Broke Girls” (#3: 4.9/ 8) and “Mike & Molly” (#3: 5.1/ 8) from 8-9 p.m., followed by freshman hit “Scorpion” at a 6.1/ 9 (#3) from 9-10 p.m. Comparably, “Scorpion” built from “Mike & Molly” by 20 percent and from year-ago occupants “Mike & Molly” (5.5/ 8 on 3/24/15) and “Mom” (5.0/ 8) by 16 percent in the overnights.
Elsewhere, two episodes of fading Fox drama “The Following” could not compete, with a distant 2.5/ 4 from 8-10 p.m. One year earlier, the regularly scheduled 9 p.m. edition of “The Following” scored a 3.4/ 5 in the overnights. And The CW populated the evening with encore telecasts of “The Originals” and “Jane the Virgin,” which each scored a 0.5/ 1.
In late night, “The Late Late Show with James Corden” on CBS debuted at a 1.4/ 5 in the household overnights from 12:30-1:30 a.m., which was 27 percent above the 1.1/ 4 for Craig Ferguson on the year-ago evening. It led out of a 2.2/ 6 for David Letterman from 11:30 p.m.-12:30 a.m., and its competition – “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on NBC – scored a 1.2/ 4 (out of a 2.4/ 6 for “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”). ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” (2.4/ 6) led into a 1.4/ 5 for “Nightline” in the 12:30 a.m. half-hour.

The Night Shift continues to do bad in that slot
ReplyDeleteThe Following is beyond dead
So glad Scorpion is still kicking as*. Shame we are already near the end? Any season finale date announced!
ReplyDeleteSad The Following is doing so poor. Not the great drama it was in early season 1 and early in S2.
What is it with these double episodes schedule Fox? Yesterday it was LMoE and now The Following. And NBC is airing two episodes of TNS in two days, doesn't seem much better.
ReplyDeleteAnd Marc, it was Intelligence on CBS last year, not Hostages.
So apparently, Scorpion will air it's season finale on 20th April. I have no idea why CBS didn't order extra episodes and carry it till May. And what will CBS air in it's place, the last 3 episodes of Stalker?
ReplyDeleteI think Castle S8 should be the final
ReplyDeleteThere haven't been any announcements for season finales besides the CW. I thought we always get these in March.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing NBC placing The Night Shift on Tuesday this week is just their way of getting rid of another episode. If it pulls a 3.4/6 after The Voice, those are going to likely be some really low ratings after the comedy block.
ReplyDeleteI think NBC wants to swap TNS and CF.
ReplyDeleteTop 25 Numbers are being added. Please refresh for updates
ReplyDeleteThanks just saw Babar commenting and announcing it for April20th.
ReplyDeleteThe next episode is the Chicago Med backdoor pilot, so I would be in support of that move. If NBC is serious about making this a series, give it the best chance of sampling possible.
ReplyDeleteThey came out pretty early today
ReplyDeleteStalker is returning this month by words of Maggie Q. Probably The McCarthyns
ReplyDeleteThey don't have enough time on the schedule to air one episode a week of The Following. a week. The last 4 episodes of the season will also air as double episodes.
ReplyDeleteThis is NBC I highly doubt it - they will likely keep it there
ReplyDeleteHmmm Interesting. Quite early. Especially with ep 20 airing next week. Stalker would use the timeslot and possible boost.
ReplyDeleteIf it was, then CBS would have announced it. I don't see it anywhere on their schedule.
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteDunno,I saw that on her twitter.
ReplyDeleteI don't really think if they aired it their, it would effect it's renewal chances.
ReplyDeleteI would like Stalker to get that slot.
ReplyDeleteShe was most likely misinformed.
ReplyDeleteThe Following is steady. I can FOX renewing the show for the 4th and final season. They can shop it probably to syndication as 4 season now are requirements today.
ReplyDeleteI know but just exiting with slightly better ratings. Still Hope never dies. ^_^
ReplyDeletehttps://twitter.com/MaggieQ/status/576823614546268160
ReplyDeleteOfficially, no. But they are listed on various TV guides.
ReplyDeleteAnd FOX also announced there season finale dates: http://www.spoilertv.com/2015/03/fox-announces-summer-schedule-and-fall.html
4 seasons are required for shows that do 22eps a season. Most networks need a minimum of 88 eps. The Following is far from that number.
ReplyDeleteIt's most likely some sort of test run.
ReplyDeleteI really interested in seeing if FOTB can beat Undateable tonight
ReplyDelete88 episodes are requirement, which we take as 4 "full" season. As a limited series, The Following will only have 60 episodes by season 4.
ReplyDeleteAgree.Looks like NBC has plans to switch CF and TNS.
ReplyDeleteTip:
ReplyDeleteIf you are using Google Chrome, instead of reloading the page over and over to view the ratings, you could right click on the table and click on "Reload Frame"
You could do this also on other embedded elements, tables, and the Disqus comments.
I don't think it will. Undateable will probably beat it by one or two-tenths.
ReplyDeleteThanks I didnt know that
ReplyDeleteSame in Opera, which is what I do.
ReplyDeleteGuesses based exclusively on top25 numbers:
ReplyDelete- Dancing with the Stars: 2.1
- Castle: 1.3-1.4
- The Voice: 3.4
- The Night Shift: 1.4
- 2 Broke Girls: 2.1
- Mike and Molly: 2.0
- Scorpion: 1.8-1.9 (this looks damn low, I hope it isn't the case)
- NCIS Los Angeles: 1.5
- The Following: 1.1-1.2
Scorpion got 1.8 in T25 for the previous episode too.
ReplyDeletein Scorpion's defense CBS has been bad with scheduling
ReplyDeleteSeason finale for SCORPION will air April 20th.
ReplyDeleteYep, she was wrong.
ReplyDeleteHopefully it jumps again then. I would like for it to be the top rated scripted show of the night.
ReplyDeleteYep, he saw that from my comment.
ReplyDeleteHas that been announced? What will air later? CBS is so strange with the scheduling this year.
ReplyDeleteYep, announced. See my comment below.
ReplyDeleteOn wikipedia it says 22nd episode will air on April 20th.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine CBS ending Scorpion early to plug the McCarthys in the slot for May Sweeps, it would be very odd.
ReplyDeleteCBS is being scheduled by some strange people this year. I don't understand what they are doing.
ReplyDeleteYep, me too. Why not order 2 more episodes?
ReplyDeleteCBS dramas are all so mediocre in ratings this season. Very little spread between first and worst. It makes me rethink some scheduling assumptions I've made for next season.
ReplyDeleteI know but I dont have anything in mind what goes else there
ReplyDelete2BG will probably will be that.
ReplyDeleteExactly. I've tried to find out what determines which shows get 22, 23 or 24 episodes by asking the people who tend to know that kind of stuff but nobody was able to really clarify me, other than saying that it is probably production related. But the strange thing is that if they had already so many episodes produced in the fall it doesn't make sense that there wasn't time for two more. It's all very odd.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree. But I wish it could be Scorpion.
ReplyDeleteScorpion has a lot of growth potential though and its repeats are through the roof (quite literally). It is the biggest drama hit CBS has ever launched since CSI Miami all those years ago (on an historical adjusted basis, of course). That's incredibly huge. I think it is being hurt by a horrible scheduling. It's much easier for people to commit to one of the reality shows instead of watching them when Scorpion is off and watching Scorpion when it is on. I expect it to rebound big next fall.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the cult is killing TheFollowing
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you heard, but 2BG is getting only 22 episodes this season, but that's probably because it started late.
ReplyDeleteYep, I agree. Hoping CBS will air it in the summer.
ReplyDeleteCBS might be propping NCIS: NO as the most viewed freshman in X years, but that 1.6 for it last week was quite bad compared to Scorpion.
My guess is this:
ReplyDelete- 30/03: Scorpion 1x20 | LA 6x19
- 06/04: Repeats
- 13/04: Scorpion 1x21 | LA 6x20
- 20/04: Scorpion 1x22 | LA 6x21
- 04/05: Scorpion Repeat | LA 6X22
- 11/05: LA X23 | LA 2X24
- 18/05: Big Bang Repeats | Scorpion Repeat
But this is really weird.
My guess is this:
ReplyDelete- 30/03: Scorpion 1x20 | LA 6x19
- 06/04: Repeats
- 13/04: Scorpion 1x21 | LA 6x20
- 20/04: Scorpion 1x22 | LA 6x21
- 04/05: Scorpion Repeat | LA 6X22
- 11/05: LA X23 | LA 2X24
- 18/05: Big Bang Repeats | Scorpion Repeat
But this is really weird. CBS is being run by monkeys.
Scorpion has had a much better schedule than NCIS: NO though.
ReplyDeleteHow so? And NCIS: NO has the dream slot, and Scorpion is beating it right now.
ReplyDeleteI'm more interested in seeing how the Night Shift performs tonight without the Voice lead-in.
ReplyDeleteI'm expecting a 0.8
Yes I have heard that. Starting late doesn't really explain it though. They could have aired those extra two episodes during the two nights in the last month in which Mike and Molly aired out of reruns. Also, Mom started equally late and they gave it 24 episodes. Everything is weird.
ReplyDeleteNCIS New Orleans is nothing but an okay retainer of the mothership, I am sure it would collapse elsewhere. Scorpion is the best thing that has happened to their drama slate in years!
ReplyDeleteHow so?
ReplyDeleteMom has 22 episodes, too and will air the season finale on April 30th.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Scorpion does well considering its up against high rated and watched reality tv pretty much all season. But DWTS def takes away some of those older CBS viewers who might have watched Scorpion otherwise. It also hasn't been helped by bad scheduling since Jan an orig always followed by a repeat. At least next week its another repeat, so therel/ be a break of about a month before the final 2 eps with
ReplyDeleteMake sense then for them to withhold those remaining Stalker episodes if CBS basically burned much of the second half of the season with only fewer encores.
ReplyDeleteOh really? There were previous announcements of a 24 episode order. Then why the hell did they force the show to air on Thanksgiving? And has CBS officially given up on Sweeps? What will they be airing in May if everything ends in April?
ReplyDeleteYou're probably right. I'm just skeptical of any show right now. As mediocre as Elementary is rated now, it started off routinely pulling 3s just two years ago. Now it's flatlined. Decent DVR growth, good rerun ratings relative to new, but it is now syndication farm fodder. So hard to predict.
ReplyDeleteAccoriding to Wikipedia these are the orders for CBS shows
ReplyDelete25 episodes:H50
24 episodes:NCIS,NCIS LA,Elementary,TBBT
23 episodes:Criminal Minds,NCIS NO
22 episodes:The Good Wife,Scopion,Blue Bloods,Person of Interest,Madam Secretary,2 Broke Girls,Mom
Unknowm:Mike and Molly
I don't know where you read the 24 episodes, but I didn't see it.
ReplyDeleteTBBT is also ending a week early on May 7th and so is CM (23 episodes) on May 6th.
Too low,I am thinking abou 1.0-1.1
ReplyDeleteScorpion had only 1 break last year while NCIS: NO had a break in November and 2 breaks in December. For a new show, having your show uninterrupted early on like Scorpion has is huge. Then Scorpion came back for 1 episode early January, then Superbowl. Now it is in a holding pattern since February (one week off, one week on). March is moot for both since they are both experiencing the same thing but NCIS: NO was playing catch up to Scorpion's episode count in February.
ReplyDeleteThis is the schedule for Time slot 5/18/15 (Mo.)9:00 PMCBS(Projected Date) (R)5/11/15 (Mo.)9:00 PMCBS(Projected Date) (R)5/4/15 (Mo.)9:00 PMCBSRepeat TBA (R)4/27/15 (Mo.)9:00 PMCBSRepeat TBA (R)4/20/15 (Mo.)9:00 PMCBS(#SCO122) POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE4/13/15 (Mo.)9:00 PMCBS(#SCO121) Cliffhanger4/4/15 (Sa.)9:00 PMCBS(#SCO115) Charades (R)3/30/15 (Mo.)9:00 PMCBS(#SCO120) Crossroads
ReplyDeleteThey have really given up on Sweeps then.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember where I saw the Mom thing, it was a while back. I don't think it was any formal source though so I will take your word for it.
NICS: NO will only air when air when NCIS will air and that should be a blessing for it.
ReplyDeleteAnd that might look like a good schedule for Scorpion, but it is actually a mess. Sure the uninterrupted run in the fall was great, but CBS should have aired a repeat on Dec 15, so they have more episode for the spring and not take so many breaks
I am pretty sure Mike and Molly is 22 episodes. How do they plan to air 24 episodes of Elementary if there aren't enough episodes of the comedy before? And Madam Secretary has one episode over the good wife too, so I thought that one should have 23 episodes. Such a mess!
ReplyDeleteWhile we are talking, I find it odd too that CBS gave 25 episodes to H50. Seems a little too passionate, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteLOL at The Following.
ReplyDeleteNext week is another new episode of Scorpion, then another repeat and the final 2 episodes. See the air dates here: http://stvplus.com/show/479/Scorpion#episodes
ReplyDeleteOn an historical adjusted basis (that is, dividing the average of the show by the average of the season as a whole, thus allowing you to make comparisons across years), Elementary averaged a 107 in its freshman year on Thursday. Scorpion, right now is at 135 (and is expected to end roughly at 136). That's 30% bigger, which is a huge difference, so I don't think they really are on the same realm.
ReplyDeleteElementary just hit a 3 once for the premiere. Thought I'd mention that.
ReplyDeleteI also do not get that one. I don't actually know why those big orders aren't given more often to minimize repeats, especially with comedies (that take less time to be produced), but to only give it to one show is strange. I don't have an explanation for that.
ReplyDeleteYeah sorry, meant to say original! Glad they're airing another orig cons3cutively but that leaves a longgggg break till the final 2 eps. Surely they'll air them end of April / early May?
ReplyDeleteSo they will air LA three times after repeats (4 in total this season) instead of doing a two hour season finale? Okay then...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info!
Like I said, only one more repeat till the final 2 episodes. The finale airs April 20.
ReplyDeleteOkay, so this doesn't conern today's ratings but we are waiting for the prelims, so I thought I'd bring up something else that is interesting. ABC airing the pilot of Grey's Anatomy on April 9th at 8, followed by 11.19 at 9, which will lead into 1.06 of American Crime. Now what's that about? And why are the essentially pre-empting Scandal by doing that?
ReplyDeleteBecause they don't have enough Scandal episodes left in the tank this season for May sweeps so they're delaying the finale a little?
ReplyDeleteSo my 2 Broke Girls was the #1 scripted show of the night? Awesome!
ReplyDeleteI was talking about that with Ultima over at TVBTN last night and I think this was the conclusions we agreed on:
ReplyDelete- It's the 10th anniversary of Grey's Anatomy, hence the pilot airing (it will be promoted as such)
- ABC (unlike CBS) cares about Sweeps so they will try to squeeze in an extra episode of Scandal in May and this GA thing is the way they've found for doing so. So I think they will do a two hour finale for Scandal and bump the American Crime finale to Wednesday May 20th, after the finale of Blackish.
Which makes me wonder why they ordered extra episodes of a bunch of shows back in October and not for Scandal?
ReplyDeleteBut the 10th anniversary was on March 27th, so this being aired this week would make much more sense.
ReplyDeleteAnd like I said in reply to Gavin, why didn't they order any extra episode for Scandal back in October? They managed to work with a shorter order last season, so one extra episode wouldn't have made that much of a difference, specially if it was done so early in the year.
this is why so many people forget to watch an episode there are too many repeats, the only reason I sometimes know is because I read here and at TVBTN most people do not A person starts to tune out after a while and just forget about the shows entirely. They kill their own shows by poor placement and habitual repeats.
ReplyDeleteOh is that confirmed? Why would they not air the finale in May? And what are they going to air after the finale?
ReplyDeleteThe Downward Shift
ReplyDeleteVoice - 3.1
Unwatchable - 1.7
One Big Bomb - 1.3
TNS - 1.0
I'm guessing Shonda doesn't want extra episodes for Scandal to keep the story tighter than have extra filler episodes? I noticed even after the short first season, there were no added episodes to Season 2. And then the shorter Season 3 didn't bump Season 4's total either. Could be in the contracts or Shonda's preference, but it seems Scandal's ceiling is 22 episodes a season.
ReplyDeleteScandal is doing 24 episodes already in this scenario, and I don't think the show could have done 25 as those are really ununsual.
ReplyDeleteAs to why they didn't do the GA anniversary thing now, Ultima's assumption, which seems correct to me, is that this wasn't the original plan (which was to do GA | Scandal | AC the whole spring) but they decided to go for this now that they've realized American Crime is a flop.
Maybe 11.19 is also a great / special episode and ABC wants people to tune in.
ReplyDeleteScandal's episode order is 22, not 24.
ReplyDeleteYep, it's confirmed. No idea. And repeats of Scorpion, most likely.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing a 0.9-1.0.
ReplyDeleteWinners: Scorpion, The Voice, Dancing with the Stars, 2 Broke Girls
ReplyDeleteHonorable Mention: NCIS Los Angeles, Mike and Molly
Losers: The Following, Castle, The Night Shift (although hitting series highs is a good thing)
I think seeing how The Night Shift does tonight will tell us where its core audience really stands
ReplyDeleteTNS will most likely adjust down.
ReplyDeleteWell, at least The Following is up a tenth. Still terrible, but a bit more promising than before
ReplyDeleteScorpion got a 2.0, so 2BG was #2 scripted. Surprised that Castle is dropping so much from DWTS. I suppose the backlash from the S6 cliffhanger is real
ReplyDelete1.9 at 8pm post DST is still huge though. But I am also happy Scorpion took it home.
ReplyDeleteSad to see 2BG and Mike&Molly down.
ReplyDeleteYep. Should the show be able to inch up another tenth on its own, I think FOX could see some promise to it, but it would be still be a toss up at best. Chances are against it right now, but it seems its not out of the game yet
ReplyDeleteI am shocked,it ll probably adjust down.But if it stays this show could even fight for renewal.
ReplyDeleteWhich is odd consider Scandal only aired 18 episodes last year due to KW's pregnancy. Scandal has one of the most bizarre season orders for such a big hit: S1 = 7, S2 = 22, S3 = 18, S4 = 24 (hours, hopefully). Regarding filler, the kidnapping storyline, which would've been perfect to squeeze out more episodes last year and been a great end to the season, certainly qualifies as filler during the middle of S4.
ReplyDeleteOh, it's a likely cancellation. It'll need a few extra tenths before it's a bubble show, but when Gotham returns it may do better and hence be in contemption for renewal
ReplyDeleteGreat for the Scorpion and NCIS LA,2BG and Mike and Molly doing well.
ReplyDeleteDWTS did OK and Castle is doing horrible this season.
The Following did OK,it has stable audience.
Thanks for clarification.
ReplyDelete1.5 from a 3.6 is just awful.
ReplyDeleteThe Night Shift looks like it rose last and even beat Castle in demo, and tied NCIS LA. That is surprising. I know last nights Castle was Castle and Beckett light but not good that it went down. Nothing else is a surprise
ReplyDeleteGive it up to The Night Shift you blind haters. It's getting renewed.
ReplyDeleteIn before it adjusts down two tenths again.
Half Hours
ReplyDeleteDWTS: 1.9/2.1/2.1/2.1
Castle 1.5/1.3
Scorpion 2.1/2.0
NCIS LA 1.6/1.5
The Voice 2.8/3.2/3.6/3.5
The Night Shift 1.8/1.3
The Following 1.3/1.2 1st episode
The Following 1.2/1.2 2nd episode
That drop for TNS. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteI am surprised The Following is very stable,it could snatch a pity renewal.
ReplyDeleteYay for Scorpion. Steady in demo. Big drop in viewership from past orig but not surprising considering it was up against 2 progs both with about 13 m viewers
ReplyDeleteWhat's crazier is LA has had already done a both 2 hour finale and premiere already! Maybe shifting LA down to 9 and placing the last three Stalkers at 10 could work?
ReplyDeleteIt is a better option than doing nothing, yes, but still seems like a bad idea to me to leave the biggest freshman drama hit they have in years out of May Sweeps.
ReplyDeleteMarch 23th 2015 vs March 24th 2014
ReplyDeleteDWTS down 3 tenths
Castle down 4 tenths
2BG down 1 point and 6 tenths vs HIMYM
Mike and Molly down 5 tenths vs 2BG
Scopion flat with Mike and Molly and up 1 tenth vs Mom
NCIS LA up 5 tenths vs Intelligence
The Voice down 4 tenths(8 pm and 9pm combined)
TNS down 1 point and 2 tenths vs The Blacklist
The Following 1st episode only 2 tenth vs Bones
The Following 2nd episode down 2 tenths
CW repeats fat with last years originals Star Crossed and The Tomorrow People
Why are they airing The Night Shift 2 nights in a row?
ReplyDeleteMaybe NBC has plan to switch CF and TNS.
ReplyDeleteRe: Castle. Seamus Dever did a good job with his starring role. Bottom line, people want to see Fillion & Katic in the forefront of every episode!
ReplyDeleteThat's about what I'm expecting, give or take a few tenths.
ReplyDeleteAssuming The Voice adds about 4-7 tenths to the Night Shift (as we have seen evident in Chicago Fire, About A Boy, and The Blacklist) then I think we could definitely see a 0.8 for TNS.
I agree. But Sweeps are largely about 10 PM shows anyways. Local news needs a nice lead in. The exception really last year, when they were testing Person of Interest and LA here.
ReplyDeleteThe Night Shift has 14 episodes ordered and the Voice only airs for 13 weeks.
ReplyDeleteNBC is essentially replacing what would be a repeat of CF with a new episode of the Night Shift, while also assuring that The Night Shift won't have to air off-season with an American Ninja Warrior lead-in.
LA & The Night Shift remain decent
ReplyDeleteThat's probably generous, but it is quite possible.
ReplyDeleteThis episode will probably be the final blow for the series though. There's bo way it gets renewed, even for summer, if it falls below a 1.0
This episode will likely be the final nail in the coffin for the Night Shift.
ReplyDeleteThere's no way NBC will renew it, even for summer, if it falls below a 1.0
It is very telling to see how little the ratings differ between TF, and SH.
ReplyDeleteSleepy Hollow
Seasons: 2
Season low: 1.2
# episodes: 31
Fall show
The Following
Seasons: 3
Season low 1.1
# episodes after this season: 45
Spring show
It's hard to tell whether TF will be renewed.
It is barely doing worse than SH, other than the fat that it has already hit 1.1 and still has 10 episodes left.
The following is one year older, so where will SH be in s3?
Sleepy Hollow ended before DST, where would it be at if it were aired in spring?
I love both shows, and I can possibly see the following getting renewed because fuck doesn't have all that much of a reliable line up.
Mindy is below 1
NG is low 1's
Idol is only on Top 10 and is hitting 1.7-1.8
Empire is a beacon of light this fall
Sunday is stable
Gotham is reliable
Bones was hitting 1.2-1.4 in fall.
Sleepy Hollow will likely be 1.0-1.4 this fall
The new shows look promising enough, but are there enough promising pilots to fill fall slots, and regular spring slots + replace SH when it ends next season?
I can't remember when was the last time when Castle was the third in its timeslot against non-premiere episodes
ReplyDeleteI think The Voice likely overrun and TNS will likely get adjusted down.
ReplyDeleteSeamus Dever is a much better actor then what he can show in Castle.
ReplyDeleteScorpion ratings make me so happy :)
ReplyDeleteHmmm Scorpion ratings no where near as high as they once were
ReplyDelete1.0
ReplyDeleteTHE PILOT?!?! ARE THEY DELETING EVERY SCENE WITH KATY?!?!?
ReplyDelete
