* With its first Tuesday telecast in three weeks, "Go On" retained 96% of the 2.4 for its prior edition in 18-49 and is currently showing total-viewers growth of 3 percent (6.318 million vs. 6.117 million).

* From 9:31-10:01 p.m. ET, "The New Normal" (1.8/5 in 18-49, 4.7 million in total viewers) finished #2 in the time period among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in adults 18-49 and total viewers.
