It's been one of their most successful anchors in a long time. Well, unless ABC moves it to Thurs 8 a la CSI, and Fridays could be given for multi-cam and syndication seasons. It seems likely that Suburgatory could go in the Fridays slot if it gets renewed though, and given deathslots, who knows what will happen next year?Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-63277197718844019062014-01-18T17:35:48.210-05:002014-01-18T17:35:48.210-05:00I'd say Over.

Not by much, I see it somewhere in 4.1 to 4.4 range. On 4.25 line I'd have to flip coin, on 4.15 I must say over, with moderate confidence though.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-50836955921789270232014-01-18T15:20:31.997-05:002014-01-18T15:20:31.997-05:00OverOverSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-258058164904559422014-01-18T15:08:14.963-05:002014-01-18T15:08:14.963-05:00Under.Under.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-77289725226686124992014-01-18T15:03:16.515-05:002014-01-18T15:03:16.515-05:00Tough one this.
