The broadcast networks continue their holiday vacation, with virtually no new programming on the air.
CBS:  The KENNEDY CENTER HONORS are a prestige show that no one watches, and more so this year:  a dismal 1.1 that was down considerably even from last year’s 1.5–and that’s with a 2.1 NCIS rerun lead-in that was by far the highest number of the night.

ABC:  Its reruns won the 9-11PM slots, including a rare time-slot win for the rerun BODY OF PROOF.
FOX:    The night’s highlight was a 1.0 for a NEW GIRL repeat.
NBC:  Couldn’t crack 0.9 for the night.
CW:  Ever hear of a movie called KEITH?  Neither did the rest of America, as the Jesse McCarthy picture did a 0.3.
The parade of reruns continues tonight, aside from a Hilary Duff flick on CW.
