Fox mainstay Hell's Kitchen (0.34, -0.02) slipped, but LEGO Masters (0.23, 0.00) was frozen at last week's rating. Son of a Critch (0.05, 0.00) was flat on the CW, while Children Ruin Everything (0.03, +0.01) inched up. The 9 p.m. hour was filled with repeats of Whose Line Is It Anyway? (0.05) and The Great American Joke Off (0.05).
