- ABC saw no bounce from the finale of certainly-doomed Duets, but they did get a season high out of Rookie Blue.
- CBS introduced Two and a Half Men to its new Thursday timeslot, and while the The Big Bang Theory lead-in massively helped relative to Men's Monday numbers, it still did a lot worse than Big Bang's usual Thursday 8:30 results, and CBS then followed with a weaker Big Brother at 9/8c.
- Rock Center followed last week's highs by dropping like a... you know.
- Cable brought the premiere of TBS' second post-Big Bang sitcom of the summer, Sullivan & Son (1.0 at 10:00, 0.9 at 10:30). Those numbers are much worse than those of the Men at Work premiere (1.3 and 1.1), which isn't that shocking since Men at Work had the endless NBA playoff promotion. They're pretty reminiscent of typical late-season Men at Work numbers. For premiere night, that's not that good.
