NCIS is skewing much older this season, NCIS:LA couldn’t crack 3.0 and fell 0.3 tenths in second hour, it’s time to move it to 10pm.

Wow, NCIS at 22 million viewers. When was the last time it got more than 22 million?
NCIS LA drops 1 full point its lead in which isn’t good. I don’t expect the second spinoff to do that well. It will probably do low 2′s.

MF repeat at 8pm was the highest rated ABC show of the night. That is very embarrassing.
PP ratings aren’t increasing toward its end which is very bad.

Go On rating still suck, which proves the show only did good (average retention from The Voice) cause of its lead in. NBC should raise their standards and move Go On and New Normal, to avoid the same mistakes Fox made with the Idol lead in not being put to good use (with the exception of Glee and House).
Parenthood is the highest rated NBC show on the night, which is very good for it.

Fox still a disaster, but now, the main anchor of their comedy line up is below 2.0.

I honestly think, that despite having 3 networks airing comedies against eachother, each comedy is failing cause they suck or don’t appeal to most audiences, and not cause they are hurting each other.

I’m an NCIS fan, but I often wonder if its ratings success is due to the lack of competition on Tuesdays from cable or broadcast. It just seems that every good show on TV is cram into three nights each week (Monday, Thursday, and Sunday). All other days are there just so viewers can use that time to catch up on their DVR recordings.
