That’s not very good Hell’s kitchen, I hoped for a 2.5+
OMG, Smash is performing badly this season!
BOP has a loyal audience of over 6 million. Too bad the show skews so old. DWTS may boost it up to a 1.5 at best.
Betty White OTR shouldn’t even come back. It keeps going down.
Well, that is much more in line with what I expected Golden Boy to have.
YIKES AT NBC. Their whole lineup was below a 1.0. Just terrible.
I thought HK would adjust up. CW repeated poorly.
Have Nielsen household members under 50 signed a pact to turn off their TVs at 10pm?
Taste still should be axed. Too many other higher rated reality contests.
Why did GB have to be adjusted down?
Oh well, hope that the positive WOM will have an effect through its run. Still time…
NCIS crowd goes to bed at 10pm, lol.
Body of Proof is done for. It’s never going to see 2.0 again, not even DWTS help. If renewed for another season, it STILL won’t be anywhere near syndication and will do even lower ratings. It should be canceled end of this season.
of course DWTS wont help BOP, if even the higher rated The Bachelor couldnt life it up. The only thing DWTS will do is bring in more old viewers
And Off Their Rockers joins the long list of NBC sitcoms that have gone below a 1.0 rating this season. Congratulations. At this point, I’d vote for Community and Parks to each get 22-episode final seasons and for every other NBC sitcom to get cancelled.
The Taste is still dead. That is way too low of a result for it to even be considered for renewal.
Golden Boy is dead, but then what else is new?
Something I’m also noticing: DST seems not to have an effect on new shows this week.
Wondering why?
Another boring night tonight – no Arrow, No Supernatural, no nothing. Two weeks of nothing but cable shows (except for Revenge and Nikita…)
golden boy is actually a good show…the premiere was just okay, but it’s gotten much better
mondays the biggest loser more than doubled any nbc show on tuesday…maybe they won’t make it a shorter season next year like they did this year…
the difference between cable & network is getting smaller & smaller–soon there won’t be any difference at all–network is dead killed by comcast acquisition of once proud nbc–tina fey had it right on 30 rock
Will CBS be holding a cage match between Chi McBride and Michael Chiklis?
@SJ — Is BWOTR a sitcom?
@SJ

It’s not a sitcom and those weren’t even original episodes.

While overall viewership does decline during the 10pm hour, DVR viewership is probably up during that hour, which would hurt live programming.
Ultima, the second Betty White was new. For what it’s worth.
