  On the first Friday of 2018, ABC saw some relief in the 8pm hour with the premiere of game show 'Child Support' (0.9). The series comfortably beat anything that 'Once Upon a Time' did in that slot. At     9, 'Agents of SHIELD' (0.7) inched up from its last episode and tied its season high. The momentum continued on to '20/20' (0.8) which also rose to a season-high. It may not have been anything like last year (where 'Last Man Standing' hit a 1.5!), but the night definitely looks a bit better.

 On CBS, 'Hawaii Five-0' (1.2) hit a new season high. It was sandwiched between 'MacGyver' (0.9) and 'Blue Bloods' (1.0). Both shows were up a tenth while 'Hawaii' was up three.

 Over on Fox, 'Hell's Kitchen' (0.9) was up a tenth and tied its season high. At 9, the network aired an encore of '9-1-1' (0.6). It did better than all 'Exorcist' airings this season.

NBC stayed out of the scripted game for a week and aired 'Figure Skating' (0.8). It did about the same as their normal line-up would.

The CW had a steady 'Crazy Ex-Girlfriend' (0.2) and an encore of 'Penn & Teller' (0.3).
