A Million Little Things: A week 2 drop to 0.8 is disappointing for the Wednesday new show that I was more optimistic on last week. It's not out of the conversation yet though. Being relatively steady from here should help A Million Little Things achieve a renewal, as ABC drama standards are low. Now, if it drops to a 0.6 next week, then the real concern should begin. For now, it's solidly on the bubble.
Single Parents: While I felt that Single Parents was a real toss-up last week, I am getting more optimistic after a week two drop similar to that of its lead-in (Modern Family was at a 1.4 this week following last week's 1.6, Single Parents fell from a 1.3 to a 1.1). I'm not ready to move it out of toss-up territory yet, but for now, things are starting to look good for this show. Friday and Tuesday comedy ratings will also help us see a fuller picture once they arrive.
Station 19: While its retention was on the disappointing side in season 1, Station 19 returned for a second season with a 1.1 out of Grey's Anatomy's 1.6. Not bad for the spin-off. Considering ABC's drama problems, there's no way the network cancels a rating like that.
The Good Doctor: This show's season 2 ratings continue to be underwhelming compared to season 1. However, The Good Doctor is still ABC's #2 drama, and still growing from its lead-in. So, it's still not going anywhere.
