The fourth season of Parenthood drew a 1.9 in the demo with 5.57 million. Compared with the third season debut a year ago, the drama was down by 14% in the prized demographic.

On FOX, the two hour installment of So You Think You Can Dance attracted a 1.5 rating with 4.29 million. Compared with last week’s usual Wednesday airing, the reality competition did about the same.

I stopped watching New Girl after the second episode. I have no idea how that show got renewed. I enjoyed watching Go On and The New Normal. Those two are keepers. :)

I like Go On, but it is impressive that repeats of the CBS shows did almost as well in the ratings. I applaud NBC for starting the season early to try to get viewers watching, but CBS is going to cream everyone when the new season starts for them.

Go On and The New Normal will easily win the three-way timeslot battle. New Girl is on the decline. It will get mid-2s at the highest, and The Mindy Project won’t do much better. Ratings-wise, Happy Endings/DTTBIA23 are jokes. Probably only NCIS:LA will top Go On and TNN in the demo. (New Girl may top TNN once or twice, but they’re not in direct competition so I don’t count that.

The real test will be when New Girl premieres to see whether Go On holds up in the ratings. I enjoyed The New Normal’s 2nd episode better than the first.
