There were no premieres, returns or finales for any of the shows on the list this week. That means it was an uncharacteristically quiet week during a time where absolutely nothing else in society followed that trend.

This week's list features the return of The CW shows. In true CW fashion, these 2nd half numbers really mean nothing because all the CW shows on this list are either in their final season or they have already been renewed for next season.

Shows are beginning to return for new seasons or from winter break. There are a handful of shows that look pretty steady (the NBC Chicago shoes, The Haves and the Have Nots and Vanderpump Rules fit that bill). There are also quite a few shows that are looking weaker than their more recent numbers (specifically the VH1 and MTV shows and Power).

I am aware that I used the same picture for 2 consecutive posts (I intend to change the one on the 2020 post whenever a better picture of any other show comes out) and I am also aware that the title only covers 6 days instead of 7 (No shows aired on New Years Eve and it looks cleaner to not have to type out 2 whole dates).

It is the last post of the year and not really worth finding a picture for 8 entries on the list. I'm not a celebratory person, but if you're going to celebrate, be safe about it. Happy New Year.

This week's list is populated with shows trying to squeeze in their final episodes before the holiday break. I understand the rationale only because Christmas falls on a Wednesday this year and that makes for very awkward scheduling.

I don't know how the holiday schedule will be the next couple of weeks other than I'm sure there will be delays at some point. There aren't a lot of shows that will still air, but I will post whatever comes out.
