Synopsis:

Spoiler:
While working a hostage situation with Detective Vega (Wilmer Valderrama), Detective Michael Britten (Jason Isaacs) unexpectedly finds himself collaborating with Dr. Lee (BD Wong). In an effort to calm down Gabriel Wyath (Guest Star Billy Lush) -- a patient who has threatened to blow up a mental hospital -- Britten is compromised, and the effects follow him into his other reality. Meanwhile, Rex (Dylan Minnette) introduces his girlfriend, Emma (Daniela Bobadilla), to his dad and Bird (Steve Harris) shows concern over Britten's lack of focus due to his sleepless nights. Laura Allen and Cherry Jones also star.

Fuck!!! 0.9 and 2.5M viewers last night.

What the fuck is wrong with America??

Oh well, at least it will finish out it's 13 episodes. Another 1 and done show.

NBC's comedy lineup's shitty ratings are killing this show.

Very bizarre episode and I loved it.

I really have no idea what they are trying to do, I think it's of one those shows where you wait until the finale to get the whole picture. But of course you can still enjoy each individual episode.

Anyone know how long it takes DirecTV to put these up on VOD? I got a new DVR yesterday (HR34) and I forgot to set a pass for this. I see older episodes, including last week's, just not this one. Figure it will be a couple of days, but maybe someone will know.

Nielsen.
2,5M viewers is like 550 actual households with Nielsen boxes watching.
There's just no way that's an accurate statistic when there are more than 115,000,000 television households in the country.

Another good example is The Vampire Diaries. That show has almost 12,000,000 likes on Facebook but according to Nielsen only about 3,000,000 are watching.
I know that's not an exact measuring tool, but are we really supposed to believe that 9,000,000 of those fans aren't watching?

Couldn't have said it any better. The Press is saying...Oh maybe people weren't watching TV last night because it was the Day before Good Friday or it's Easter Weekend.
