Fox and CBS shared a relatively uneventful December Tuesday last night, each earning a 2.9 rating among adults 18-49.
As was the case with most original episodes last night, Glee and New Girl both were both down to their season low. Each dropped three percent among adults 18-49, for respective 2.9 and 3.3 ratings. Raising Hope saw a five percent boost in the demo, finishing Fox’s night with a 2.3.

NCIS topped all other shows among adults 18-49, earning a 3.5, followed by NCIS: LA (3.0) and Unforgettable (2.1). The latter was down 5 percent for a season low.
