>The official nationals for Monday adjusted 2 Broke Girls and Two and a Half Men down one tenth, while Mike & Molly and Hawaii Five-O went down two tenths of a rating point because of the Monday Night Football game airing on CBS in Baltimore. Dancing with the Stars went up one tenth and Castle went down one tenth in the official nationals — so no real impact overall on ABC. World Series Game 5 ended up at a 4.2 national rating, at the high end of our expectations. Click “read more” to see updated charts.

An important note: the ratings estimates are for original episodes across the entire Fall (from mid-September through mid-December). Generally, a series will premiere at a high level and then settle into a more normal number by week four-six. The important number to look at as the season unfolds is the average-to-date column at the far right. By the time episode four rolls around, look at the average of episodes one-four and you should have a pretty good idea how the fall — and the entire season — will sort out.
