Two hours of Hawaii Five-0 helped CBS win a slow Friday night in the ratings, but the crime drama saw its numbers down a bit from the previous week.

CBS kicked off its night with a new episode of MacGyver, which pulled in 6.91 million viewers’ eyeballs and a 0.8 18-49 demographic. That was off a tenth from last week’s new episode, reports TV By The Numbers.
