- The finale of Motive (0.9) was up for the second straight week (and was actually a tick above last season's finale), though it had some help from another very strong night of ABC comedy repeats. I thought Motive was toast in season one, but it survived and has actually dropped (just barely) less than the league average in its season two move to Wednesday. I still wouldn't consider it totally safe, but it doesn't really look any worse than last year.
- Meanwhile, competing drama Taxi Brooklyn (0.7) and its America's Got Talent lead-in (1.8) were each down again to new lows.
