On CBS, The Big Bang Theory was the winner of the night once again with a 4.8 rating (0% change week-to-week) in the 18-49 demographic and 15.4 million total viewers. Two and a Half Men dropped 8% in the demo to a 3.7 rating with 12.9 million.

At 9pm, Person of Interest attracted a 3.0 rating (+7%) with 14.0 million and Elementary garnered a 2.2 rating (-4%) with 10.2 million.

On ABC, there was bad news for Last Resort which drew a 1.3 rating (-19% week-to-week) and 6.4 million viewers. Could this be the first ABC show of the season to be cancelled?

Grey’s Anatomy followed with a 2.9 rating (-15% week-to-week) and 8.5 million and Scandal brought in a 2.0 rating (+5%) with 6.3 million.

On NBC, 30 Rock attracted a 1.3 demo rating (+8% week-to-week change) with 3.6 million viewers. Up All Night followed with a 1.6 rating (+23%) and 3.9 million.

*Note: the NFL game was simmulcast on NBC in Minneapolis so this probably artificially inflated NBC’s TV show numbers. They’ll likely fall in the finals.

On The CW, The Vampire Diaries dropped slightly with a 1.2 demo rating (-8% week-to-week change) and 2.7 million viewers. Beauty and the Beast held steady with a 0.7 rating and 1.9 million.

On FOX, we had the second game of the World Series (San Francisco vs. Detroit) with a 2.9 rating and 10.2 million viewers.

What do you think? Do you think Last Resort will keep falling? Has Beauty and the Beast stabilized? What were you watching last night?
