Ratings Breakdown:
As a reminder, Daylight Saving Time always takes a negative toll on the ratings and this year is no exception.
CBS led this second Thursday in March, besting No. 2 Fox by 0.4 rating points. And “The Big Bang Theory” topped the night, of course, with a 10.2 rating/17 share in the 8 p.m. half-hour. That led into a 6.6/11 (#1) for episode four of “The Odd Couple” at 8:30 p.m., which dipped to a series-low and dropped from “The Big Bang Theory” by 35 percent. One year earlier, however, retention for former time period occupant “The Millers” out of “Big Bang” (6.8/11 vs. 11.5/19) was weaker at 59 percent. The prognosis: “The Odd Couple” will stay afloat if it remains where it is. If it moves next season (a la “The Millers,” which crumbled on Monday), the new Felix may really have something to honk about.
Four-week household overnight track for “The Odd Couple”: 8.1/13 – 7.1/11 – 7.6/12 – 6.6/11.
Next on CBS was an encore telecast of “The Big Bang Theory” (#3: 5.9/ 9 at 9 p.m.) into a 5.7/ 9 (#3) for the very compatible “Mom,” which along with “Mike & Molly” and “2 Broke Girls” was just renewed for next season. Older-slewing drama “Elementary” closed the night for the Eye net with a first-place 5.2/ 9 at 10 p.m., which will only resonate in the older demos.
In week two news, ABC’s highly-touted “American Crime” took a tumble, with a 4.5/ 8 at 10 p.m. (#2). Comparably, that dropped by a sizeable 26 percent from the 6.1/11opener one week earlier (which translated into 8.37 million viewers and a 2.0 rating/7 share in adults 18-49, based on the Live Plus Same Day data). The overnight retention out of the 9:30 p.m. portion of “Scandal” (6.3/10) was modest at 71 percent. And former time period occupant “How I Met Your Mother” was a stronger occupant.
Earlier in the evening on ABC was veteran “Grey’s Anatomy” (#3: 5.8/10 at 8 p.m.), which was almost triple the overnight rating of failed year-ago occupant “Once Upon a Time in Wonderland” (#3: 2.2/ 4 on 3/13/14). And aforementioned “Scandal” took the 9 p.m. hour with a 6.4/10, which was eight percent above the 5.9/ 9 for year-ago occupant “Grey’s Anatomy.”
In time period premiere news, failing recent NBC entry “The Slap” moved into the 10 p.m. hour with a mere 2.1/ 4, which was a series low and five percent below the final episode of canceled “Allegiance” last week (2.2/ 4 on March 5). Overnight retention, meanwhile, for “The Slap” out of lead-in “The Blacklist” (#4: 5.3/ 8 from 9-10 p.m.) was embarrassing at just 40 percent.
At 8 p.m. on NBC was the arrival of “Dateline” (themed “The Real Blacklist”) with a 2.9/ 5 (#4) from 8-9 p.m., which was just seven percent above the 2.7/ 4 for former time period occupant “The Slap” one week earlier.
Elsewhere, two hours of “American Idol” on Fox scored a so-so 6.1/10 from 8-10 p.m., fluctuating by 0.5 rating points in the four half-hours. and the CW’s tired “The Vampire Diaries” (#5: 1.2/ 2), which may not be capable of anchoring Thursday next season, led into a 0.7/ 1 for sophomore “Reign” (#5), which should have received its walking papers.

Wow. Scandal looks very low.
ReplyDeleteIs the chart active? I refreshed and see a giant empty space on my screen.
ReplyDeleteI can see the chart but I'm going by Marc's analysis.
ReplyDeleteLooks like everything took a hit last night
ReplyDeleteChart won't be updated for at least 1.5 hrs
ReplyDeleteCool. Thanks for the update.
ReplyDeleteI think we will see season lows across the board for ABC.
ReplyDeleteIt surely looks like it.
My poor Reign :(
ReplyDeleteWeird, I don't see anything. No chart, no analysis of HH.
ReplyDeleteMom was so funny yesterday
ReplyDeleteWell isn't that the exact same rating they got last Thursday a 6.4 which equaled a 3?
ReplyDeleteNo, last week I think it was a 7.4
ReplyDelete7.4
ReplyDeleteLast week
ReplyDeleteTBBT 11.1/17
Scandal 7.4/12
Dateline: The Real Blacklist and The Slap's relocation was a bust. I honestly don't understand why they don't run with a schedule of Grimm/The Blacklist/The Night Shift. It would do a lot better than any other option.
ReplyDeleteThat leaves Mondays at 10 PM, but honestly, just move The Mysteries of Laura there to try to see if it can do better. Three moves may be a lot but it's a lot better than every two weeks having to fix something.
American Crime is struggling. A 26% drop is not good at all.
Didn't you think NBC's 'new' revamped Thursdays would be any improvement?
ReplyDeleteOh shoot this might be a season low.
ReplyDeleteThat seems about in the ballpark of where I expected American Crime to be. That show is crazy good but the subject matter is difficult and it's more focused on slowly developing the characters than relying on flashy plot twists. Hope ABC understood that if they were going to go for cable content and quality, they better expect cable ratings.
ReplyDeleteI see it but it's mostly just a tab on the top of the chart.
ReplyDeleteif you click it and it opens up.
ReplyDeleteNot with Dateline: The Real Blacklist. I wrote previously that four nights of Dateline is too much. And since week one, I've advocated moving The Night Shift to Thursdays or summer as it's wasting The Voice lead in.
ReplyDeleteI know. Hence, I using 'tab'
ReplyDeleteLOL Dateline....
ReplyDelete#RIPNBC
Elementary is up, but who knows if it'll reflect in the demo. It's a shame. I love that show. The cases don't do much for me, but I could watch Joan and Sherlock converse all day.
ReplyDeleteAnd The Voice's lead-out would be?
ReplyDeleteEverything is probably hitting lows.
ReplyDeleteWhen VD shows up in the loser category.
ReplyDeleteThose things are scary for ABC.
ReplyDeleteWoah, DST really hit hard on everything last night
ReplyDeleteSo I can't see the analysis, anyone want to give me a real quick breakdown? Especially on Dateline, I hear it's super low.
ReplyDeleteLet's just say DST brought upon the networks a bloodbath.
ReplyDeleteNBC is in a lot of trouble.
ReplyDelete"And former time period occupant “How I Met Your Mother” was a stronger occupant." - Oh Marc...
ReplyDeleteSince NBC seems stubborn to keep American Odyssey (why the name change?) on Sundays, The Mysteries Of Laura. Now what I would do is make a two night premiere, continue on with American Odyssey on Monday as its permanent timeslot and until then specials/filler.
ReplyDeleteTVD may be hitting 0.6 today... if worst comes to worst a 0.5 may be in sight, but I won't go there yet. As for Reign, it looks like a 0.3
ReplyDeleteABC's lineup took quite a blow, especially Scandal looks pretty down, a whole point down.
The Blacklist seems to be the one show that held up well. And well, TBBT will still rate among the four, but probably low 4s
American Crime is their problem, not the other hours though. I don't think they can beat CBS with American Crime as part of the lineup and that is a bit scary indeed when CBS has mega flop Elementary taking up one hour and has a regularly scheduled repeat in there. But GA was always going to be hit hard by DST at 8pm and Scandal was bound to drop a bit after the kidnapping arc too (Idol probably more than doubled Backtorm too in the 9pm hour). I wouldn't worry too much just yet.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Scandal's problem was the kidnapping arc coming to a close. After all, it had already ended last week and it still managed to do a 3.0.
ReplyDeleteI think that racism episode might have alienated a lot of viewers.
That headline confused me alot lol
ReplyDeleteis The Blacklist down? :( I hope Netflix gives a s4 in 2016
ReplyDeleteI thought DST brings the clocks ahead one hour, not back one month!! Haha
ReplyDeleteoh, for the love of God. The Blacklist already has a S4 guaranteed.
ReplyDeleteNow, shush it.
Nah I don't think so. The racism episode was already down 0.3 from the level it had settled in the kidnapping arc so the show was already overachieving by then. I don't think it fell all that much by the 3.0 today, I expect high 2s, which be a natural decline from a 3.0 considering the likely lower lead-in, the no interest in the lead-out (which is known to help lead-ins too), the added competition from Idol and, of course, DST which led to lower viewing levels. I think we are looking at a normal drop considering all this, I don't buy that it has anything to do with the racism. If it pulls a 2.5 or some crazy thing like that then I will give you credit, until then I think there are more than enough good reasons for a drop before getting there.
ReplyDeleteThe Blacklist will last more than 4 seasons. Why do you keep insisting that absolutely safe shows are in permanent danger?
ReplyDeleteClick the Early Ratings Analysis then the HH opens
ReplyDeleteActually, I wonder if it's not just daylight savings time but those Nelson boxes in college dorm rooms that will not be used this week because of spring break
ReplyDeleteThe racism episode might have dropped due to the one week break and shows don't tend to react well to one week break.
ReplyDeleteBut we will see.
But that episode got pretty positive response.
ReplyDeleteIt honestly looks like a fluke due to DST
Oh my God, I don't even want to see what Grey's will get :S That looks terribly low, probably an 1.9.
ReplyDeleteDateline,2.9/4
ReplyDeleteIt did? I saw mixed opinions everywhere.
ReplyDeleteMy point is that, in the fall, excluding the first two episodes and the last two episodes, the show never deviated from 2.9-3.1 so I think 3.0 is its "normal level". Regularly posting 3.3s for the kidnapping arc was an over-achievement imo, so last week was just the reflection of it coming back to its normal level. This week, a decline from that normal level as a result of the aforementioned factors.
ReplyDeleteI hope it remains north of 2.0
ReplyDeleteHi @Bill 2:disqus Why can't you see it? Are you have trouble?
ReplyDeletejust wanna know if it's down. I will cut it out saying that about shows ok. I can still comment down or up
ReplyDeleteCable Content? were you around in the 80's for Hill Street Blues, Homicide : Life on the Street? American Crime is just like those, Not everyone watching network programming wants the soapy Scandal or HTGAWM..I welcome new programming that quite frankly looks like the old days
ReplyDeleteMe too, but it's not looking good. It got a 2.2 with a 6.1/10 a couple of weeks ago, I think.
ReplyDeleteok. thx
ReplyDeleteHH can vary a lot.
ReplyDeleteTVD 0.7 please, great episode
ReplyDeleteI just checked: last year it had a 2.3 with a 5.9/9, so maybe it's not that bad.
ReplyDeleteI just hope Scandal is 2.9 and then gets adjusted up. But it doesn't look that way.
ReplyDeleteThose numbers look really bad.
ReplyDeleteTBBT close to a 10 in the households, Odd Couple at a series low. Grey's and Scandal down, weren't they hitting 6s and 7s last week? American Crime will be a one and done and CW might see a 0.6/0.3
Yes, Grey's was seeing 6's and Scandal was seeing 7's just last week.
ReplyDeletenice then. Still gotta get used to the new site format.
ReplyDeleteI'm terribly confused. It says
ReplyDeleteRatings News - 13th February 2015
FEBRUARY??? >.< lol! and it's empty, no numbers
I just figured it out: I'm on a mobile device and I see you changed the format on it. I was expecting to see it below the table when in fact it was above it in a drop-down menu, which I didn't know when I posted that.
ReplyDeleteAh cool, glad it's working.
ReplyDeleteI'm on mobile but I can't see Berman's so called analysis.
ReplyDeleteOh my, my bad lol.
ReplyDeleteShould be fixed now ;)
It's under a tab
ReplyDeleteMost of the ones I saw were leaning towards postive, but maybe there were some mixed reviews around somewhere
ReplyDeleteJust click the Title and it will open
ReplyDeleteElementary is definitely way underperforming, but it's still not that far off the drama average. Elementary is not the problem, and CBS needs to address a lot of concerns in its lineup. I'm not sure they have anything that would do better in that slot. POI had a 1.4 with less competition this week, and E gets that against HTGAWM.
ReplyDeleteI agree. There is a review that called Crime the best show of 1987, comparing it with those dramas.
ReplyDeleteLove the new features
ReplyDeleteWe've updated the layout of the Ratings Post so that it appears more condensed on first use and hides info that you might not want to read all the time.
ReplyDeleteJust click the sections to reveal their contents.
We've also posted the full previous weeks adjusted final ratings of the shows that we cover in the ratings database.
If anyone has any problems, please let me know by replying to this comment
Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteLike the new format-But its the only thing good in this news.DST started to kill shows,AMerican Crime is dead,TOC falling down a lot,Scandal getting season low,Greys getting to 5s in HH,NBC horrible with The Slap and Dateline....Geez this isnt good at all
ReplyDeleteAmerican Crime is DOA. I wonder if ABC plan to save the new Shonda show to TGIT next season or if it will be picked up for 22 episodes and then one of the Shonda shows will air at another day.
ReplyDeletevery disappointed with mathew perry show "the odd couple".
ReplyDeletei guess its hard for writers nowadays to do a fresh storyline.
if it gets renewed they all should thank TBBT.
I get the comparisons, but in my opinion, American Crime wishes it was as good as Homicide: Life On The Street. Nothing on broadcast TV has gotten to that level yet and likely never will.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with American Crime is it's a cable oriented show that has been done better. Great acting, huge execution problems, hence the drop that I think everyone expected.
Its CBS produced,so I think it will,DST kis killing this show a LOT.
ReplyDeleteNOTE: Google is currently having some issues with the Google Docs server where were store the Ratings Table. Hopefully it will be fixed by the time the ratings come out in about 45 mins
ReplyDeleteAnd The CW cancelled HOD for Reign today too... LMFAO
ReplyDeleteThankyou. I was going to ask about the table not showing up.
ReplyDeleteGood to know.Thanks for being a great Admin.
ReplyDeleteI was going to do the same thing
ReplyDeleteKimmel uses Shonda's shows as it's Thursday ad rate lead in and those ratings leverage the ad rates he gets for late night over the week.
ReplyDeleteShonda is very likely staying on Thursdays with all of her shows.
Thanks ! What happens if top 25 comes out?
ReplyDeleteThen I will destroy the universe
ReplyDeletei think its quality is par with "the millers".the writers gotta step up
ReplyDeleteActually creator posted the news on 6th March.
ReplyDeleteLol
ReplyDeleteNothing new there.
ReplyDeleteIf that does happen I'll just post them as text in the article and then update the tables later when they become available.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I was wondering why I couldn't see the table
ReplyDeleteTVD :( PLZ 0,7 or 0,8
ReplyDeleteTVD...Days when it had 1.6 and BATB 1.2? CW has fallen so much on Thursdays.
ReplyDeleteI think TVD is finally getting that new series low (0.6).
ReplyDeleteReign deserves its low ratings. That's what happens when you alienate your fanbase and keep forcing love triangles despite the fact nobody cares.
TVD kinda deserves it with its repetive storylines and forced ships. Someone take TVD away from Julie already
ReplyDeleteI agree. I think next season should be the last. It's obvious Plec run out of ideas a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteGet real genre writers or at least KW back to give it a decent send off. The soap writers are destroying TVD that was once great with each episode. Everything is about ships and lame ass repeative plots. meh
ReplyDeleteIt looks like everything was hit somewhat hard. ABC looks something like this:
ReplyDeleteGreys: 2.2
Scandal: 2.7
Crime: 1.5
Are you kidding? I want to have 8 seasons. I beg you !! I love TVD. I hate Delena and Steroshit, but stand.
ReplyDeleteOh, that looks ugly. With those top 25 ABC will have its worst Thursday this season
ReplyDeleteThose are not the top 25.
ReplyDeletewhy cant i see the table???
ReplyDeleteI was, but that was then, this is now. Since cable has been doing original series, they have gotten better and better at producing original content, while networks have fallen behind by a huge amount. I'm very glad to see ABC try something that harkens back to serious dramas from earlier decades.
ReplyDelete(And btw - as good as Hill Street Blues could be, it still had soapy subplots and cast interaction.)
Oh, those are predictions. Duh xD
ReplyDeleteAmerican Crime was phenomenal and very improved last night. Some of the day acting & writing on broadcast TV right now. Sad how it's so underrated.
ReplyDeleteAm I supposed to be able to see the ratings table? Because all I keep getting is a blank screen under the other options with an error message no matter how many times I refresh the page.
ReplyDeleteI still cannot see the table :/
ReplyDeleteSame here.
ReplyDeleteyeah me too. but i am able to see the early rating analysis
ReplyDeleteMe, neither. Sometimes the Google error notice shows up. Sometimes it's just blank space where the table should be.
ReplyDeletelol me too.
ReplyDeleteNot if she has four shows next year.. If there of them get 22 episodes per season + HTGAWM they can't all fit Thursday.
ReplyDeleteI can't either
ReplyDeleteExactly. After KW left during S3 the show started going downhill and it became all about romance. I just want the show to get a proper ending.
ReplyDeletefor anyone else who missed the comment
ReplyDeletehttps://twitter.com/googledocs/status/576395165390241793
Finally I can see the table.
ReplyDeleteIt's a slow burn, but I don't find that to be problematic personally. I think it's exactly what they're going for. For me - and at least some portion of the viewing public - a lot of those small, slow moments are satisfying and evocative. But yeah, mass audiences do not love slow burn. Mad Men is one of the best shows on TV, and it's never gotten a big audience. That's why I say, if ABC is really willing to take these kinds of chances with a new show here and there, hope they're willing to support it if the prestige and reviews are there, but the ratings aren't typical broadcast success ratings.
ReplyDeleteCan you?
ReplyDeleteyup.
ReplyDeleteOh okay thx, I Still cannot see it :/
ReplyDeleteABC has apparently cancelled Repeat After Me or they have ran out of episodes produced in time to air. They are airing a repeat of FOTB at 8h30 when FOTB returns in originals in two weeks.
ReplyDeleteFOTB will go on repeats?
ReplyDeleteFOTB is a repeat next week, yes.
ReplyDeleteNo, RAMhas two repeats and is back after that last time I checked (yesterday)
ReplyDeleteGrey's: 2.1
ReplyDeleteScandal: 2.6
AC: 1.4
TVD 0.6, Reign 0.4
ReplyDeleteOhno Vzd.Thank God Reign held steady.It tied The 100
ReplyDeleteOuch
ReplyDeleteThe episode planned for 24/03 was removed and a repeat of FOTB 1X02 will now air.
ReplyDeleteGrey's is the sole bright spot on ABC; everything fell big time and yet it only dropped a tenth
ReplyDeleteBridge shows. How To Get Away With Murder won't be 22 episodes. Highly doubt The Catch will either with that premise.
ReplyDeleteAnd even if they do move it, where would it go? They will give Shonda's shows the best lead ins possible to prevent it from struggling on another night. That's not available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Sundays. Mondays at 10 PM is a possibility, but let's be real, they won't move Castle again. That move has been suggested for years and it hasn't happened. It won't happen again.
Ouch
ReplyDeleteGA is the one that actually held up the best given DST. AC is a horrible flop and should be pulled, those ratings post Scandal are inadmissible.
ReplyDeleteIt dropped 0.3 but your point still stands.
ReplyDeletethats disatrous for TVD! highest ad rate and well a 0.6 the affilates must be bricking it!
ReplyDeleteand only a 1.33m
ReplyDeleteReign is a steady little Biatch! Glad it kept up!
ReplyDeleteAmerican Crime is done.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but then why would the rerun it this upcoming Tuesday?
ReplyDeleteOh, I thought it was only one, must be confusing it with another week. Still, it did pretty great all things considered
ReplyDeleteLet's hope it keeps 0.4s the rest of the season
ReplyDeleteSad that Scandal dropped. As for AC, I have to say that this is not a good sign
ReplyDeleteBye,bye American Crime.
ReplyDeleteWinners: The Big Bang Theory, Mom, Grey's Anatomy
ReplyDeleteHonorable Mention: Scandal, The Blacklist
Losers: American Crime, The Slap
ABC should simply open up their wallets and throw everything they have at Viola Davis and ask her to do full seasons, period.
It seems like their hardcore fans don't give up on it. I hope that Elizabeth's arrival and Conde's hopeful imprisonment will bring back viewers.
ReplyDeleteSecrets and Lies would have done better tha AC following Scandal.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what ABC will, if AC doesn't rebound big time next week it should be replaced with something else
i´d say the vampire diaries deserves a place at the looser table this week
ReplyDeletenew low for TVD :( omg why this season is wayyy better then last year
ReplyDeleteRough night hopefully they can rebound next week
ReplyDeleteYou are right, apparently it will be back in originals in April. Maybe they got behind on production schedule then
ReplyDeleteIt's very underwhelming, but it's not horrible yet. If it hits a 0.5 then it should be listed as loser
ReplyDeleteReally don't know what happened to Scandal. Didn't have time to catch up but they fall quite much.
ReplyDeleteIdol 1.7
ReplyDeleteLMAO
ReplyDeleteBob Greenblatt's fix for Thursday failed big time. Dateline did as bad as The Slap and The Slap did worse than Allegiance.
YESSS to Mom still going up each week the past 2 weeks
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten about the CW. Added.
ReplyDeleteSo Series Low for The Vampire Diaries, American Crime and Odd Couple
ReplyDeleteNo, I think this is bad enough to be a loser already.
ReplyDeletelmao at Steroshit.Unfortunately I thought it was a predictable and boring episode.I just want character development without a ship.
ReplyDeleteOuch....
ReplyDeleteAs the google services are still down, here are the whole ratings so you can see them here
ReplyDeleteCritical acclaim and lack of options will probably ensure they run the full season. But these are black box numbers following Scandal for a show that got an insane amount of promotion and that is going up against no competition at all. It's horrible
ReplyDeleteIt will go uncommented but Mom was the biggest winner of the night. It built on the Big Bang repeat and is only 0.3 behind Odd Couple with the original Big bang as lead-in. It also did 0.3 better than the Monday comedies.
ReplyDeleteSo well deserved! Love the show!
The show rocks...omg yesterday was freaking hilarious!
ReplyDeleteOuch TVD :(
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, the quality of the first seasons (1,2,2) is finally back in season 6. But is to late for the viewers that stop watching in the previous seasons. They must finish the series in the next season!
nope it has the highest ad rate at the network and for them to be pulling in a 0.6! is a disasters there is no way to spin it, last year average 1.0 and 2.23m they are already down +30% both demo and viewers this season and we are not in full spring mode yet
ReplyDeleteI quite like the new layout!
ReplyDeleteHere,where?
ReplyDeleteShame. One of the best episode of the season got a series low. An episode very low on ships which had proper action and badassness.
ReplyDeleteOuch Idol.
ReplyDeletePretty much. Its premiere last week was already bad, but if it held up better then it could have made a case for it. Now it's outright look away ratings all factors considered
ReplyDeleteonce you loose your audience they rarely come back!
ReplyDeleteso that people can see it "here" on spoilertv
ReplyDeleteThey are lucky they have Empire as a lead out on Wednesdays. AI is going to drop on Wednesdays in two weeks after Empire wraps its season.
ReplyDeleteI am kind of hoping this somehow helps Secrets and Lies a bit. It's clearly the stronger show.
ReplyDeleteAmerican Idol's talent is awful this year. The ratings are a reflection of some really bad talent.
ReplyDeleteIdol, Scandal and TVD got hit HARD. Greys, TBBT, Elementary and Blacklist met standards while Mom exceeded. American Crime is a flop.
ReplyDeleteThis pretty much sums up the night
ReplyDeleteAgreed
ReplyDeleteThe Whispers premiere date in 3.2.1...
ReplyDeleteThat's going Tuesdays at 10 PM. I'd be surprised if it earns any other timeslot.
ReplyDeleteAnd the fact that only Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood still put out hits. America has simply given up hope of the show creating a new star, not to mention the new judges and arguably terrible promos on the FOX app.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't go there just yet, but it's your call. It does look very ugly.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like next season will be the final one; the new team up super hero show may be the way to replace TVD on the night unless The CW still wants Thursdays to be a female skewing night, which wouldn't be the best idea considering there will be TGIT there
Yeah, I can't wait for Eluzabeths arrival and Condes improvement-hope Condes imprisment comes soon & I hope both will bring back Viewrs too,
ReplyDeleteChicago Fire, an hour where Chicago's bravest have to put out multiple fires and disasters is NBC's top rated scripted show this week.
ReplyDeleteAnd they say symbolism is dead on NBC. Not so.
I have a theory of why some of the series fell so much:
ReplyDeleteTVD, Greys and Idol definitely got hit by DST.
Scandal got hit hard by Idol, DST and maybe because it was a mostly a filler episode.
American Crime fell because the premiere was hella boring and because Scandal fell.
I hate how DST have hit everything this week.
ReplyDeleteFotB, The 100, TBBT, Scandal, among many others are down
This is sad.
ReplyDeleteIm cackling.....
ReplyDeleteWith the promo I think I can see Conde to make some desperate moves to get Mary back, and Francis could get kidnapped in the last moments of next weeks episode. So he'll get captured in 2x18-19. And just in time for Elizabeth to appear.
ReplyDeleteLexa can seriously pass off as the daughter of Khaleesi and Khal Drogo.....
ReplyDeleteThe tables have been fully posted now
ReplyDeleteThanks for sorting mate. Good stuff.
ReplyDeleteHappy to help :)
ReplyDeleteMom was the sole winner during this night. The Blacklist held up pretty good.
ReplyDeleteEverything else went down the drain during this week. We'll have to see if these blows will continue upon next week or stop here
