Demo Profile 2015 Nov SUN.01

FOX:  The WORLD SERIES didn’t reach the promised land (for FOX) of Games 6 or 7.  However, what turned out to be the final Game 5 was, at 4.8, well above the 3.3 for 2014’s Game 5.

NBC:  A battle of unbeaten teams (Denver vs Green Bay) helped SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL up 0.3 from last week’s preliminary number to 7.2. 

ABC:  After AMERICA’S FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS and ONCE UPON A TIME each slipped 0.1, respectively to 1.0 and 1.5, and BLOOD & OIL remained at 0.8, QUANTICO took a 0.3 hit to a series low 1.2.  Was it because of the baseball competition added to weekly football, or is the show starting to fade?  We’ll find out next week.

CBS:  NFL overruns pushed the schedule in several cities, so the preliminary numbers will face adjustment.  For now, 60 MINUTES,MADAM SECRETARY and THE GOOD WIFE are all down 0.2, respectively to 1.3, 1.1 and 0.9.  CSI: CYBER is holding at 0.8.

ABC airs its annual COUNTDOWN TO THE CMAS special at 10PM tonight, ahead of Wednesday’s awards show.  On cable, TNT follows the season premiere of MAJOR CRIMES with what is promised to be a thoroughly revamped version of last year’s mediocre LEGENDS.

 

COMPARISONS TO SIMILAR NIGHTS: Preliminary adult 18-49 ratings versus the same night last year and same night last week.
