The Girl with Something Extra (1973) - Sally Field stars in this rare 1973 sitcom as a newlywed whose ability to read peoples' minds throws her and her husband (John Davidson) into a variety of wacky hijinks. The show co-starred Zohra Lampert and Jack Sheldon, with appearances by Farrah Fawcett, Merv Griffin, Don Knotts, Dick Van Patten, Teri Garr, and Stephanie Edwards.

Also of note for us, stay up late with getTV, as the network unveils a new Get Lost In TV overnight block, every Sunday at 12 a.m. ET, starting on Jan. 1 with John Cassavetes as a piano-playing P.I. in five episodes of Johnny Staccato. Next, on Jan. 8, Perry King, Joe Penny, and Thom Bray star as crime solving Vietnam vets in five episodes of Stephen J. Cannell's Riptide.

The month closes on Jan. 29, with Western hero Audie Murphy as a Denver lawman in nine episodes of Whispering Smith.


This Is Us

Viewers will have the chance to binge-watch the biggest hit of the fall season, This Is Us, when all 10 episodes of NBC's breakout drama air on sister cable network USA Network. The catch-up marathon kicks off at 1 p.m. ET/PT on Saturday Jan. 7 with the pilot episode airing simultaneously on NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment's USA, Bravo and E! networks. All episodes will then continue on USA Network through 11 p.m. New episodes of This Is Us return to NBC on Tuesday, Jan. 10. The series stars Mandy Moore, Milo Ventimiglia, Sterling K. Brown, Chrissy Metz, Justin Hartley, Chris Sullivan, Susan Kelechi Watson and Ron Cephas Jones. In the series, it is a refreshingly honest and provocative series that follows a unique ensemble whose paths cross and their life stories intertwine in curious ways. We find several of them share the same birthday, and so much more than anyone would expect.

We have previous week's final ratings, Week 13 (12/12/16-12/18/16, LIVE+SD). NBC won the week in A18-49, boosted by two primetime NFL games, and did a 2.66 rating.  CBS was #2 with a 1.49 rating powered by an NFL overrun. ABC was #3 with a 1.00 rating, while Fox did just a 0.92 rating.  Among total viewers, NBC was also #1 with 10.021 million, with CBS #2 at 8.811 million.  ABC was #3 with 4.458 and Fox at #4 with only 2.723 million.

For season to-date (9/19/16-12/22/16, LIVE+SD), NBC is 1 in A18-49 with a 2.32 rating, followed by Fox at #2 with a 1.77 rating, which is heavily inflated by a high 7-game World Series. CBS is  #3 with a 1.57 rating and ABC at #4 with a 1.29 rating. Among total viewers it is CBS #1 at 8.560 million, followed by NBC at #2 with 8.531 million, as it is catching up thanks to two NFL games a week. World Series boosted Fox still at #3 with 5.732 million but ABC at #4 is catching up with 5.506 million.

Back to week 14 (Dec. 19-25), read our full night-by-night analysis followed by how the sitcoms did! GREAT showings are in BOLD. If they are in bold in both total viewers and 18-49, then it is very impressive:
