ABC coverage of the Artemis II splashdown took a commanding ratings chart position last week. While coverage was spread across all networks (except FOX) ABC's coverage was the highest rated. The network also renewed The Rookie for a ninth season last week. With that renewal, the Nathan-Fillion-led series becomes the third-longest-running series for the network behind Grey's Anatomy and NYPD Blue. Will Trent was also renewed for a fifth season. High Potential wrapped its second season, up one hundred thousand viewers from the previous week. Scrubs lost one hundred thousand viewers, but should be easily renewed. RJ Decker was even with the previous week. The network also filled its regular Thursday night programming with Decker repeats. Next week will tell if that generated any additional viewers. Betrayal: Secrets and Lies picked up four hundred thousand viewers from its premiere last week.

CBS began wrapping up the final season of The Neighborhood last week with a new episode and a retrospective special. America's Culinary Cup lost two hundred thousand viewers last week, which it couldn't afford. It may squeak a renewal, but that's a bit of an 'if'. Marshals was down two hundred thousand viewers. Tracker lost one hundred thousand viewers. The NCIS trio were fairly stable. Parent NCIS and NCIS: Origins were even. NCIS: Sydney was down two hundred thousand viewers. Matlock and Elsbeth each picked up three hundred thousand viewers.
