And I'm back.

Ladies and Gentlemen! Children of All Ages! Watch as The Great Chocolate Showdown makes the magicians' audiences disappear!

On the other hand, putting Penn & Teller on Fridays seems to have been a good move.

The late-night "SNL" is shown on this site. It does better with older viewers. Young people aren't that interested.

Thursday nights are BACK on CBS! I don't think "Ghosts" has ever done any better. "So Help Me Todd" is probably benefitting from the lead-in.

4.9 million for the pre-game, 11.7 for Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime.

"Survivor" still gets huge numbers except with women and seniors (still good numbers with them but not Chicago numbers). Everyone except men and young people like Chicago Wednesdays. "Masked Singer" is getting good numbers with everyone but men and seniors. And "Lego Masters" is holding up about as well as a building built of Legos. Okay, apparently not that bad. But seniors really don't like it.

"Bump" gets bumped off the CW schedule with pretty much no one watching, and when you can see 3 digits after the decimal, a second episode is as low as it can still be and still be 0.2.

"Welcome to " ... a SECOND season of "Flatch"? WHY?

[InsertBrainHere]

"Bachelor in Paradise" doesn't look like it is doing too well, but it's doing very well with women and young people. On the other hand, "Rookie Feds" might not make it through training.

"Monday Night Football" did better than last week with a separate game. This is the last week, however.

"Devils" is going down, down, down.

Whatever "Global Citizen Fest" is, it was a very bad idea. Why not start "Funniest Home Videos" the same week as everyone else?

I checked the latest number for "Quantum Leap" and it's not good.

Back next week at this same time.
