Putting Chicago Med up against Scandal may not be very wise.
I honestly can't believe its ratings were as decent as they have been. I feel it is a weak medical show and I'm usually annoyed. Yet I keep watching because of cross-over episodes (I want to be up-to-date.) I continue to contemplate giving it up.
Anyway, right now it competes against NCIS:New Orleans, which I believe typically attracts an older audience than Chicago Med. It also competes against Marvel's Agents of SHIELD, which is more of a niche audience.
I think that Scandal and Chicago Med have more of a similar audience. I feel Scandal will win this battle hands-down.
With DVRs and OnDemand, I suppose it matters less now. Still, I think ratings will go down because of this move.

I watch both Scandal and Chicago Med, and I had the same reaction. I will probably watch Scandal live, and catch Chicago Med the next day. I watch Med for the actors. I wish it were as good, storytelling-wise, as St. Elsewhere, which I think it could be if they would take it in that direction, but that's not how Dick Wolf rolls. At least it isn't musical beds like Grey's, which I stopped watching regularly because of Dizzy.
Blindspot at 8PM. Okay I guess. Seems a little strange but I don't see a better alternative - short of holding the series until January and running it straight through without reruns.
Timeless looks excellent, as I would expect. But I'm surprised by the Good Place, though on second though, I shouldn't bet. It's Ted Danson and Kristen Bell! This is Us seems like it'll satisfy a certain type of viewer (not me, though).
We (my wife and I) watch the Chicago series and Blacklist. I watch Blindspot but she does not. I see Blindspot as a bit like the Blacklist using tattoos instead of Red to introduce the evenings adventure.
As to the Chicago series my rankings are
1. PD
2 Fire
3.Med

The Chicago franchise is a big draw for NBC right now. Chicago Med will do well regardless of its move. I will be eager to see how Chicago Justice, the latest installment spun off from Chicago P.D., will do. I hope NBC does not screw it as it did with several Law & Order series.

I dont quite understand what "This is Us" is supposed to be. Their birthdays are on the same day and their lives intertwine? The trailer seemed kind of out there.

Otherwise, nothing on NBC.
