It's that time again.

Apparently I will have to wait until Wednesday from now on, regardless. And the terrible thing about that is if this had not been a leap year, I would be unable to do this today. Any other week where I have to wait until Thursday, it looks like that's how it will be. Saturdays are now being reported after Mondays.

"So Help Me Todd" is this week's "Crimetime".

And once again Children ruin The CW. Videos of real children do somewhat better, and animal videos perform well as well. Not as well as when Elizabeth Stanton and her friends commented, obviously.

Sam Waterson's big moment gave "Law & Order" a boost. Oops. Forgot the third hour. I'll go back and get that next round.

They made a point of mentioning that "Ghosts" fell but there was cliffhanger.

This is about to be a very different list. Without football there's just crime shows and "Sheldon" at the top. And "Sheldon" is ending soon.

Football being over wasn't a bad thing for The CW which got good numbers for its true crime show. We've got "Dateline", "20/20", "TMZ" and now this.

Not a good start for 'The Good Doctor" which is ending. "Will Trent" is delivering.

That's it for this week.

Yikes! Fox without football. Those are new episodes except for the cooking competition.

Look at "Tracker"! Normally CBS starts high and goes down but it went up.

And I forgot "60 Minutes" but normally it needs a football boost.

Back next week at this time.
