Thus far on the sitcom front, ABC has only announced renewals for Modern Family (for a final season) and The Conners (following somewhat protracted contract talks).
Elsewhere on the night….
CBS | MacGyver (6.1 mil/0.7) improved on last week’s series lows, yet both Hawaii Five-0 (6.8 mil/0.7) and Blue Bloods (8 mil/0.7) dipped to match demo lows. The trio tied for Friday’s demo win, while the newly renewed Blue Bloods easily delivered the night’s biggest audience, as it does.
FOX | Leading out of sitcom reruns (seriously, is Last Man Standing ever new?), Proven Innocent (1.8 mil/0.4) held steady.
NBC | On-the-bubble Blindspot (3.2 mil/0.5) delivered its best audience since Feb. 8 while ticking up in the demo. The Blacklist (3.8 mil/0.5) was steady.
