- The Agents of SHIELD bleeding continued for ABC, though it did slow down somewhat. It brought The Goldbergs another few tenths, while Trophy Wife was even at 9:30 and a repeat of Scandal improved on Lucky 7 at 10/9c.
- On the CW, consider night #3 established. The Originals made a solid transition to its new night, down just a tenth from the post-The Vampire Diaries preview, but the real stunner was the premiere of Supernatural, which hit its best ratings in nearly three years (since a 1.2 on 10/15/10) in its return to Tuesday. It was 50% ahead of last year's Oh Sit!-depressed premiere and 0.2-0.3 ahead of its spring 2013 level.
- CBS saw NCIS take a significant post-Cote de Pablo crash; it fell back behind SHIELD and remained behind The Voice even in clip show mode. But they were relatively steady in the last two hours.
- NBC remained atop the Tuesday standings even with a two-hour clip show of The Voice; Chicago Fire was down about a half point with the depressed lead-in.
- Perhaps benefiting from a weaker Voice, Fox's fourth-place comedy lineup finally stabilized, with Brooklyn Nine-Nine and New Girl on the upswing.
