- The New Adventures of Old Christine (1.7/5) and Gary Unmarried (2.0/5) both pulled in 6 million.
- Mercy (1.6/5) also raised 6 million.
- Approximately 6 million watched The Middle (2.1/6) as well.
- A Modern Family* repeat (1.7/5) scored 5.2 million.
- Life Unexpected* (1.1 million, 0.5/1) did about the same as last week.
