I'm back, but I'm having some computer troubles so I may take a while to get finished. I'm waiting on a call back from tech support. If I finish this before they call, I'll call them.

Nothing big to comment on except the site says it's the first new "Shark Tank" in several weeks, as well as the first "SNL" but that doesn't count since this is a list of prime time shows. The classic episode is included.

The Christmas specials that run year after year don't do too well, but they seem to work.

I think they should put "Riverdale" out of its misery. When you see all three digits, it's worse than it looks.

I know of some other shows that really should have been cancelled by now.

And that's it for this week.

Next week, because of the holidays, I am unlikely to make it here before Thursday.

The 7:00 rerun of "The Simpsons" surely did not do that well without a football lead-in. In fact, if Fox has the late game then there is no 7:00 episode. But for some odd reason, the site I use did not show a number for the episode, and I had to use a preliminary number from the other site. Those numbers are not reliable for sports, and given the show's history, I believe it's unreliable here as well.

Also, no pre-game shows for NBC on Sunday either. I'm not going to use the unreliable preliminary numbers for those. They don't match what usually happens in the final numbers.

Merry Christmas, if I don't make it here before then.

Oh, and I fixed an error last week. Two shows were tied, when rounded, weren't listed alphabetically.
