NBC’s revamped Sunday schedule got some more bad news on Sunday.

The Weakest Link returned with just 1.5 million total viewers and a 0.2 rating

The numbers are way down from its freshman season, casting a dark cloud over its future on NBC.

The Courtship, a new dating reality series, slipped to 0.6 million viewers and a 0.1 rating — around 40% vs. its premiere,

Transplant closed out the night at 1.1 million viewers and a 0.1 rating, steady with its premiere.

The show has already been renewed in Canada, but NBC will probably not air the third season at these levels.

ABC’s winning combination of American Idol (6.4 million/0.9 rating) and The Rookie (3.2 million viewers/0.4 rating) were both down, but still strong.

Over on CBS, The Equalizer (6.7 million/0.6 rating) and SWAT (4.1 million/0.5 rating) held up well, while NCIS: Los Angeles (5.2 million/0.4 rating) dipped a tenth as it awaits word on its future.
