Primetime Ratings, Tuesday, 1/21/14

 

 

NBC won the 18-49 demo battle, while a night of CBS reruns drew the most total viewers.

'The Biggest Loser' recovered a bit from last week's season low, rising two tenths to a 1.9. 'Chicago Fire' followed that up by matching last week's 1.8. 'Dads' shot up three tenths to a 1.5, but remains all but canceled. Recent Golden Globe winner 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' rocketed up by half a point, earning a 1.9. The Andy Samberg comedy is looking more and more likely to be renewed.

'New Girl' continued the positive FOX trend, rising three tenths to a 1.9 of its own. 'The Mindy Project' finished things up by jumping up four tenths to a 1.5. On ABC, 'The Goldbergs' dropped three tenths to a 1.5, and is now firmly on the bubble between renewal and cancellation.

'Trophy Wife' fell two tenths to a new series low of 0.9. Despite critical praise, there is no way ABC is going to bring back a freshman comedy that falls below a 1.0. Fans should start preparing themselves for the inevitable. 'Killer Women' stayed flat with last week's 0.7, and is as dead as a doornail. Finally, 'The Originals' and 'Supernatural' both rose to respective 1.1s for The CW.
