- FINALS UPDATE: After removing a double-whammy of Monday Night Football preemptions, Dancing with the Stars swung all the way down to a 1.6 (but was still within striking distance of the same night last year, when it hit its outright season low 1.7). And Castle dropped four tenths to match last week's 1.2. On CBS, The Big Bang Theory (3.8) added two tenths again, while Life in Pieces (1.9) lost one, putting LiP at a very ugly 50% retention. The Voice (3.4) added a tenth as well.
- Monday was probably the ugliest night of premiere week, and the week two preliminaries didn't offer much help. On NBC, Blindspot (2.6) still looks like the only Monday newbie winner, taking a very typical 16% week two drop as its lead-in The Voice (3.3) was down a tenth or two.
- On CBS, The Big Bang Theory (3.6) crashed by roughly a point in week two, putting it way behind last year's 4.7 in week two. As for new lead-out Life in Pieces (2.0)... the good news is that the retention was pretty similar retention to last week, but the bad news is that retention stinks, and it's now out of a much weaker lead-in. This put it about on par with where The Odd Couple stabilized last spring, and it's only week two here. Scorpion (1.7) was another disappointment, joining the comedies in dropping 20%+ in week two, though NCIS: Los Angeles held tight at last week's 1.2 at 10/9c.
- ABC looks kinda high, so there may be a Monday Night Football preemption, but in the prelims Dancing with the Stars (1.9) and especially Castle (1.6) were on the upswing. Castle was up a whooping 0.4 from last week, which should be enough to hold onto some growth even if preempted; maybe this show will be the one to pick up some of the naturally fleeing Blindspot viewers. UPDATE: ABC was preempted in both MNF markets, so stay tuned for finals!
- On Fox, things got even rougher for Minority Report (0.9), but at this point the network should be more focused on keeping Gotham afloat. On that front, week two was reasonably promising, as its 1.6 matched last week's premiere.
