NETWORK FINALS:  THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL adjusted to 6.8.  In addition, LEGENDS OF TOMORROW gained 0.1 in final numbers, but SUPERNATURAL, THE GREAT INDOORS and THE GREAT AMERICAN BAKING SHOW fell the same.

Except with respect to some programming on HGTV, Food Network and POP, all cable comparisons are to 2 weeks ago rather than to Thanksgiving night.
