CBS narrowly won the night with its regular schedule. The night started strong with the 200th episode of NCIS, near a season high for the series. But then NCIS: LA and Unforgettable fell back to near season lows (despite the addition of TV veteran Jane Curtin to the struggling 10 pm drama). Last year on CBS was slightly higher: NCIS (4.2), NCIS Los Angeles (3.5) and Good Wife (2.2).

FOX's Glee continues to flirt with season lows -- guest star Ricky Martin was not the answer last night. Despite the lower lead in, the comedies New Girl and Raising Hope maintained recent levels. Last year on this night, FOX aired Glee (4.6) followed by Raising Hope (2.7) and Traffic Light (1.9).

ABC answered your prayers (hey, they said so in their promos) and delivered two original episodes of Last Man Standing at 8:00 (2.3) and 8:30 (2.5), the latter guest starred Kim Kardashian. Next, The River (with a pedigree that included Steven Spielberg and Oren Peli from Paranormal Activity) premiered with a just okay 2.4 from 9-11 pm. However, the show declined each half hour: 2.5... 2.4... 2.3... 2.2. Not a steep decline like we saw with Smash on NBC Monday, but not at all encouraging. Still, the night is a vast improvement from the Island of Misfit Dramas that was ABC Tuesday last on the same night: No Ordinary Family (1.5), V (1.8) and Detroit 187 (1.3).

Well, the glow of this year's Super Bowl lasted 24 hours. NBC moved back to fourth place with a soft performance from Biggest Loser and a season low from Parenthood. Last year on this night: Biggest Loser (3.0) from 8-10 pm and Parenthood original (1.9).
