Trifecta's Celebrity Page published a 0.2 for the 36th straight week.
In daytime, the top five court shows all lost ground. Judge Judy was in repeats for part of the week and dipped 3% to a 6.4 but still topped the gavelers for the 1,224th week in a row and tied Jeopardy! at the top of the overall chart.
