CBS sitcom The Neighborhood (0.43, +0.16) ended its eight-season run by soaring to a new season high, and that appeared to help DMV (0.30, +0.10) close out its one-season run on a high note, as it jumped all the way back up to the high it set in its October debut (0.30). Later, FBI (0.28, 0.00) held steady, and CIA (0.17, -0.03) declined. ABC had its own finale surge as American Idol (0.56, +0.12) ended its season with a significant increase (though NBA on NBC (1.37) was still on top overall). Fox aired repeats of The 1% Club (0.18) and The Quiz with Balls (0.16). Sullivan's Crossing (0.06, +0.01) climbed higher on the CW. Key: (R) = repeat. (F) = finale.
