Ratings decline, IMHO:
- The "tough competition" on Monday nights is not from ABC and NBC. Its is from ESPN. NCIS LA, like all action shows, skews heavily male. It is competing, at least in the east, with MNF.
- Scorpion is a terrible show, and thus a terrible lead in.
- All of this political ho-ho turns some people off.
- The Langue character has always been unbelievable, but can be tolerated because somebody has to be the boss. She just reads the boss lines and fades into the background. Might as well be a talking Panda. But, when you put her in the center of the show, the unbelievably comes to the forefront. The political ark with all of her secret houses and neo-super powers rise to 60s Batman level of stupidity.
