Welcome to the very quick run down to the end of ratings, with the start of Week 45. With the Melbourne Cup on this week, Tuesday turns to mush and endless Ch7 promotions for horse racing and fillys and dresses and hats and such will fill our screen. There are other options, including some new shows (American Horror Story and The Killing) popping up that are interesting watches, and the return of other shows (Blue Bloods and Glee) to sate some televisual appetites. Three weeks of ratings left, and this is how this week looks…
