ABC: Strong Dancing. The Bachelor ends up weaker than last fall's retention for Boston Legal.
NBC: Solid Deal and Medium. Goodbye My Dad.
Fox: See ya New Amsterdam! No way this show returns now that it fell despite a better lead in.
CBS: Solid all around save for Christine which still should return and help launch another hour of comedies imo. Rules is a mess creatively but will probably have better ratings. I wonder how it would do though in 8:30pm slot next year?
With all of the new shows that Fox has in development, I doubt many mediocre performers will return and with Prison Break, SCC, and the Til Death/Back to You combo all likely back, there won't be any room for New Amsterdam. My guess is a new drama on Tuesday with House and a new drama on Friday with Bones. PB and SCC return to Monday with Til Death, Back to You, and Kitchen Nightmares filling Wed. again and the gameshows on Thursday. Sunday may see a new comedy.

Like it or not ROE will put up much better numbers post Two And A Half Men...
CBS is opening a new age of comedy like NBC was again, they are slowly finding more and more successful ones.
As for The New Adventures of Old Christine, I think CBS will do another comedy hour that contains Christine, and if it fails, then that's the end of it for Julia.

What do you mean 1 more airing and the over. because if its that what you mean then you are painfully mistaken

Looking at NBC's shows, can't help but shake my head in disgust. All these pointless reality shows and a severe lack of scripted fare... no wonder this network is going to the dogs.
Very strong showing by CBS tonight. Big Bang Theory did quite well, HIMYM did great and 1/2 Men and CSI: Miami rocked the ratings. Christine's retention is disappointing though.
Bachelor needs to die. Why are they wasting the post DWTS slot to this crap? It should be given to a scripted show. Maybe Lost? I remember Lost doing very well after DWTS at a time. But that show has been thrown around so much that it's starting to show in the ratings... maybe something like Dirty Sexy Money would be good there.
That's not what I got from his post. I think he was saying that CBS will try launching a new comedy hour with Christine and if that fails then the show is a goner.

I must say How I Met Your Mother was pretty funy last night. I usually don't watch but I did last night out of curiosity of Britney Spears guest starring. I laughed out loud I don't know how many times. It was very funny and story had some depth which is nice to see on a sitcom. It had funny moments, light hearted, and was sweet. I loved Sara Chalk and Britney Spears. It would be nice to see them both as regulars.
I feel bad for Christine. I hope it continues. I think it would do well on ABC.
Good numbers for CBS. Especially How I Met Your Mother with Series Highs in the demo.
Weekly Ratings For CBS Comedies Last Week:

Next week, HIMYM will have the biggest week to week drop. I expect it to drop into the mid to low 8 millions.
