What have we got? A crumbling TBL, a Sleepy Hollow repeat, and a TNF game involving a team whose name is problematic to most of the people who might watch Scandal.<br /><br />I said last night I'd check what the black feminists I follow on Twitter said about Black-ish; I can't see much comment, certainly nothing to suggest deterrence for Shonda Thursday. There's a couple who are turning their backs on Scandal but are going to be sampling Murder tonight, too. I can totally buy 85% retention, and if Scandal meets my expectations it will only need about 75%. So I'm thinking mid-3s here.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-35412620841382846752014-09-25T16:44:00.959-04:002014-09-25T16:44:00.959-04:00OverOverSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-32257767107685933472014-09-25T16:33:13.771-04:002014-09-25T16:33:13.771-04:00OverOverSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-14943993107881189802014-09-25T16:02:27.523-04:002014-09-25T16:02:27.523-04:00OverOverSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-82764543518807043312014-09-25T15:20:17.737-04:002014-09-25T15:20:17.737-04:00Over.
