There will be one night of Olympics coverage this week, thanks to those weeks when Saturday was missing. NBC, of course, is way off.

Two hours of reruns of scripted shows on Saturday on CBS. Back to normal.

Slight improvement on Friday. "Dynasty" actually crossed a line and it's above 0.3, not just due to rounding.

[InsertBrainHere]

New episodes are back on The CW, but that doesn't seem to be helping. The new mystery for "Riverdale" to solve: Who stole our viewers?

How is "Love Island" still on?

And "Brooklynn Nine-Nine" (that's how the site spells it) stays around regardless of how few viewers there are, because it was established this is the last season. "Making It" isn't, and it's taking down one of the "Law & Order" shows with it.

I can see 20 people already saw this before I was half finished. I hope they know which shows are new and which ones are last week's.

I can't save this in a way that will keep people from seeing it, and yet I've just spent the past 30 minutes repeating previous actions. I had all but a couple of shows from Wednesday through Saturday that I didn't lose when the computer quit working. And even if there were a simple way to restart everything, I would lose what's here.

Superhero shows are looking a little better of The CW, but that's still not great.

I wonder why baseball did so well on Fox?

[InsertBrainHere]

Baseball did NOT do well on ABC.

And introducing people to "Fantasy island" didn't do as well as a rerun of "Family Guy". And from the looks of it, if Fox asked for a fantasy, the new Roarke told them there were some things even they couldn't do.

Back next week. I keep meaning to come here earlier. I got a really early start this morning but some of the things I do took a while.
