And I'm back.

Weird that numbers actually go UP for the second "World's Funniest Animals". Also, all Saturday CW shows, despite being reruns, are up from last week. Even "Would I Lie to You?"

[InsertBrainHere]

The numbers for "Big Brother" don't tell the whole story. On Wednesday it is dark green almost all across the board and way out in front for the night with all audiences except the seniors who like their Chicago Wednesdays. On Thursday, same deal except the seniors like game shows and "Young Sheldon". Also "Ghosts".

"Masterchef" is doing much better than total numbers would indicate. It is number two for the night except with seniors. And women like "So You Think You Can Dance". It's a strong third among English language shows. Keep in mind I don't include Spanish language shows even though my site does now.

No changes whatsoever for The CW on the two nights because of rounding that I do.

"Generation Gap" fell off somewhat after more people tried it the first week but it's still looking good. However, ABC has uncovered a "Fatal Flaw" in trying for young people.

[InsertBrainHere]

No, that is NOT a rerun for "Tom Swift". He needs Superman, who is currently helpless.

"The Bachelorette" has huge numbers with most audiences and is even number one with men, but not by much. Seniors are watching CBS.

[InsertBrainHere]

Oops. Last week I made Penn & Teller disappear. Fixed now.

"Riverdale" is back, with the worst numbers of the week. Well, not quite. A rerun of "Wellington: Paranormal" did worse when you see three digits beyond the decimal.

"Big Brother" did well on Sunday but "Celebrity Family Feud" did slightly better with 25-54 and men. With 18-49 it was in front for the night but not by much.

NBC, "Who Do You Think You Are?" Certainly not the big winner but football will be here before you know it.

Fox is getting CW numbers on Sundays, but these are reruns. Look at all the Fox shows that are bunched together!

It will probably be Wednesday before I get back here next week.
