Renewology Week 8: Fresh Off the Boat, The Kids Are Alright, Splitting Up Together, Speechless

Here's a look at the big Renewology developments in week eight. Just a quick look at some ABC comedies this week!

Spotted Ratings, Friday 11/16/18

FINALS UPDATE: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (0.2) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• It was a relatively big night for the ABC comedies, as Fresh Off the Boat (0.7) and Speechless (0.6) are each eyeing new season highs. That didn't help Child Support (0.4) a bit at 9/8c, though 20/20 (0.5) did inch up at 10/9c.

• Fox's Last Man Standing (1.1) and The Cool Kids (0.9) gave back last week's gains (plus dropped another tenth in LMS' case), but CBS was on the uptick with Hawaii Five-0 (0.8) and Blue Bloods (0.9).

FINALS UPDATE: Thursday Night Football (5.0, +1.6) adjusted up.

WHAT MATTERS:

• Fall finale night brought upticks to all three prongs of TGIT: Grey's Anatomy (1.7), Station 19 (1.2) and How to Get Away with Murder (0.8). It was a particularly above-average night for S19, the show's highest rating this season other than the Grey's crossover in early October.

• CBS was even with the Sheldon comedies (2.3/1.8) but up in the last two hours with Mom (1.3), Murphy Brown (0.9) and S.W.A.T. (0.8). NBC dropped where CBS gained, as the net was steady with Superstore (0.9) and The Good Place (0.8) but saw Will and Grace (0.7) and Law and Order: SVU (0.8) fall to new lows.

• And the CW got another 0.3 out of Legacies, as its Supernatural lead-in ticked up to 0.4. Thursday Night Football (3.0/3.7/3.4) had another pretty big night, likely matching or slightly exceeding last week.

WHAT MATTERS:

• The CMA Awards took a steep decline on ABC, down by 35% from last year's 3.2. It was a new low for the ceremony by a mile, nearly a point below the 2.9 from two years ago.

• But the ceremony was still big enough to maybe contribute to some drops on the other broadcasters; CBS (1.4/0.8/0.7) gave back its gains from last week, while NBC's Chicago PD (1.0) and Fox's Empire (1.4) preliminarily inched down. On the CW, All American hung in there at 0.3 yet again, a tenth below its Riverdale lead-in.

Spotted Ratings, Tuesday 11/13/18

WHAT MATTERS:

• Back after a week of election preemptions, ABC's Tuesday lineup looked less like the Halloween-boosted one of two weeks ago, and more like what they did three weeks ago... if not even worse. The Conners (1.5) and The Kids Are Alright (1.0) both hit new lows, while Black-ish (1.0) lost just one tenth and Splitting Up Together (0.7) fell two tenths to tie its week two rating. The Rookie dropped to 0.7 for the first time at 10/9c.

• On NBC, New Amsterdam (1.1) took a hit at 10/9c, while The Voice (1.6) and This Is Us (2.0) were even to narrowly down.

• CBS had the best return from preemption, with NCIS (1.4) and FBI (1.1) both rising from two weeks ago. 

• And Fox's The Gifted and Lethal Weapon were back down to 0.6, after growing with no entertainment competition a week ago. The CW's The Flash (0.6) is eyeing a new season low, though it's already adjusted up from 0.6 to 0.7 twice this season.

Spotted Ratings, Monday 11/12/18

FINALS UPDATE: Arrow (0.4) and Legends of Tomorrow (0.3) adjusted down.

WHAT MATTERS:

• Week seven brought a sixth consecutive drop for Manifest (1.1), putting it an even halfway down from its 2.2 premiere in September. Its lead-in The Voice (1.7/1.6) was also down. Manifest still eked out a win in the 10/9c hour, as ABC was even-ish with The Good Doctor (1.0) and its lead-in Dancing with the Stars (1.0/0.9).

• CBS saw a rebound for The Neighborhood (1.1) but stayed at 0.8 for everything else. Fox (0.6/0.6) went into repeats and the CW dramas (0.5/0.4) are pending a New York City preemption for Monday Night Football.
