Will these two once hot shows be able to stay even on Friday nights? Probably not, but stranger things have happened.

  • On Fox, Bones (4.5 million/0.9 rating) said goodbye to 2015 with a slight dip.
  • On ABC, Toy Story at 20 (3.3 million/0.9 rating), led into Toy Story (3.1 million/1.0 rating).
  • And on NBC, Michael Buble's Christmas (7.2 million/1.1 rating) and Dolly Parton (12.9/1.8 rating) pulled in solid ratings.
