CBS reruns don’t change much for the other networks. FOX:  Last night’s THE FOLLOWING felt a lot like an episode of 24, and parts of it were borderline ludicrous, but it was the game-changer the series needed, allowing it to broaden its canvas from here on.  In CBS’s absence, it was the highest-rated show of […]

  ABC gave a back order to AGENTS OF SHIELD today, and of course that makes sense, since the show’s most recent 2.9 rating was considerably higher than the 2.2 the network was getting with the Dancing With the Stars results show in that slot last fall, and SHIELD may be neck-and-neck with NCIS in the […]
