  AFTERNOON UPDATE:  The usual scattered 0.1 moves, although the notable one was the one that didn’t happen:  although THE VOICE did go up 0.1 as expected, ABOUT A BOY didn’t lose any of its number.  Also up:  MIND GAMES (still pathetically low) and SUPERNATURAL, along with the reruns of THE GOLDBERGS and TROPHY WIFE.  […]

> FRINGE continues to live far from the ratings center. FOX:  THE FINDER and FRINGE had matching 0.9 ratings, respectively setting and matching series lows.  Finder is just running out the string, while it’s becoming increasingly difficult to see how FOX can keep Fringe alive, even at a bargain license fee, when it’s running 25-30% […]
