Everyone should notice a couple of things different about this week. There are only five days. For as many years as 3Sheets has been doing this, there have been seven. And they started with Monday. This is the last week ratings will start with Monday, and Sunday's numbers will wait a week for this reason.

The web site I have been using has not updated in two weeks. I only had two days of final numbers last week. I no longer have final numbers, or even a web site that will show Saturday's ratings. The web site I found only does Sunday through Friday, I guess because Saturdays are always just reruns. There are also sports events but apparently that's not important because those are not TV series, and the web sites I have been going to are mainly about how TV series are doing.

And here are some comments from one of the sites. "The Flash" and "Superman & Lois" have hit new lows. "NCIS" is moving to Mondays, which is a real shame because it helped Tuesdays a lot on CBS. "Bull" hit a new low with the demo, and it's the demo that counts. I list total viewers but that doesn't always help a show.

That's it for me. It sure went faster and I know it's not what some of you want. But these preliminary numbers are available through this past Tuesday if anyone wants to know.

Nancy Drew's current mystery is once again what happened to her viewers, and there was a disaster this week. The site I'm using now measures the change in the number of viewers in the demo, and she lost 100 percent. In other words, she had 0.0 million viewers in the demo. And while "Kung Fu" was obviously a rerun, "Nancy" was not. But she was obviously hurt by the lead-in. Notice what happened on CBS Thursdays too. "United States of Al" still has new episodes but they're not getting propped up by Sheldon. And the rest of the night is reruns.

Interesting what happened to The CW this week when you round the way I do. Even "Dynasty"! This site does two digits beyond the decimal (the other site did three and there is one that still does, but for fewer shows) but what's really the point if they're not the finals anyway.

"The Conners" recovered but that didn't help "Call Your Mother" which has been cancelled.
