The big draw on the night was Global\u2019s rock-steady import<em>NCIS<\/em> at 8 p.m. (1,838,000). <em>Chicago Fire<\/em> did 1,162,000 at 10 to sweep the night for Global.<\/p>\n<p>CTV saw 874,000 tune in at 8 p.m. for <em>The Flash<\/em> and 734,000 at 10 for<em>SHIELD<\/em>.

For a show with no stars (albeit enjoying a massive CBC marketing campaign), that\u2019s pretty good. Sitcoms are a hard sell and often take a while to connect, especially against the clutter of Peak TV.<\/p>\n<p>The gains come from word of mouth \u2014 as do the losses.\u00a0That\u2019s likely what is slowing down <em>Kevin Can Wait<\/em> over on Global.
