Some observations about this week before I add the rankings.

Things are going from bad to worse for The CW even with news series. Penn & Teller should NOT try this at home. Their regular show did improve Thursday's numbers slightly but it did not air on Monday as usual. "Whose Line" did cross the line to 1 percent. Rounded. I need to fix something about last week, but if a series airs more than once and I forget the day of the week or the time, that's probably the one that airs at the normal time.

"Stargirl" keeps falling and no one wants to hear the story. "The 100" is down to 25. "Taskmaster" may have gotten the worst numbers ever for any show since I have been doing this, if you look at three digits beyond the decimal.

I wonder why Pride does better than LL? Also, notice when rounded, LL got the same numbers both nights.

ABC's "The Bachelor" fell into the red zone. The site I go to now has colors that show how well a program did compared to others, and of course The CW is consistently red.

I did not bother to list a baseball game that started at 10:58. Pent-up demand for sports does not seem to be reflected in this week's numbers, although hockey isn't popular anyway.

And that's it. "Got Talent" did not recover after going back to new episodes.

If it means anything, Marvel's show improved with the key demo in its final numbers.

ABC should do news specials on Tuesdays because it seems to work for them.
