Thewell x trol wx 251 CW’s

Gossip Girl

went out on a (relatively) high note.

The final episode of the CW’s brand-establishing soap delivered 1.5 million viewers and a 0.8 rating among adults 18-49, the show’s best performance this season. Along with a special

Gossip Girl

retrospective at 8 p.m., this was the network’s best Monday performance in a year.

Over on NBC, a preview of the new White House comedy

1600 Penn

performed somewhat modestly given its big lead-in from

The Voice

.  The Josh Gad sitcom had 7.2 million viewers and a 2.3 rating in the demo, coming after

The Voice

‘s 13.3 million and a 4.1 rating. By comparison, the

1600

performance was down 8 percent from

The New Normal

‘s post-

Voice

preview earlier this fall.

Also Monday: CBS was the top network for the second Monday in a row, with

How I Met Your Mother

and

Mike & Molly

posting slight gains, while

2 Broke Girls

slipped due to

The Voice

expanding into the 9 p.m. hour this week.
