It was no contest, care of Thursday Night Football on Fox (Kansas City Chiefs 34 – Los Angeles Chargers 28). See the network averages above and remember that results for any live sporting event are always approximate.

Opposite repeats of ABC and NBC (the latter with an encore telecast of TV movie “Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors” from 9-11 p.m.), ABC finished in the distant No. 2 spot. But veteran “Grey’s Anatomy” is showing its age and sophomore drama “Big Sky” is just not resonating. Take a look:

Thursday/ABC
8:00 p.m. “Station 19”
Viewers: 4.53 million (#2), Adults 18-49: 0.6 rating/4 share (#3)

9:00 p.m. “Grey’s Anatomy”
Viewers: 4.06 million (#2), Adults 18-49: 0.6/ 4 (#2)

10:00 p.m. “Big Sky”
Viewers: 2.52 million (#2), Adults 18-49: 0.3/ 2 (#1)

In the specials department, both on the Thursday 8 p.m. hour, were “Women of Worth” on NBC (Viewers: #4, 1.26 million; A18-49: #4, 0.2/ 1) and “Dogs of the Year” on The CW (Viewers: #5, 633,000; A18-49: #5, 0.1/ 1). Also on The CW was low-rated “Legacies” at just 375,000 viewers (#5)( and a 0.1/ 1 in the demo at 9 p.m.
