UPDATE:  RESURRECTION only got bigger in final numbers, rising 0.2 to a huge 3.8 (crushed by THE WALKING DEAD, but still).  That tied the debut of THE BLACKLIST last fall–and of course BLACKLIST had a giant lead-in from THE VOICE to help launch it.  The midseason premiere of ONCE UPON A TIME went up […]
