Ratings Breakdown:
The Denver Broncos at the New England Patriots on “Sunday Night Football” led NBC to another easy overnight victory, with an estimated 17.0 rating/28 share from 8:30 p.m.-12:30 a.m.
But ABC was no slouch care of “The 2013 American Music Awards” at an 8.2/12 in the overnights from 8-11 p.m. Comparably, that outdelived the year-ago telecast (6.6/10 on 11/18/12) by 24 percent. And last year’s telecast translated into 9.52 million viewers and a 3.4 rating/8 share among adults 18-49, according to the live plus same day data. Expect a demo rating in the low-4 range.
At 7 p.m. on ABC was veteran “America’s Funniest Home Videos” at a distant third-place 3.5/ 6 at 7 p.m., which was down by eight percent from the year-ago evening. And pre-game “Football Night in America” scored a 1.9/ 3 at 7 p.m. (#4), a 3.7/ 6 at 7:30 p.m. (#4) and a first-place 10.3/16 at 8 p.m.
Elsewhere, Fox got a considerable boost care of the NFL primetime overrun at a 17.3/28 (#1) in the 7 p.m. half-hour. That led into a dominant 14.4/23 for “The OT” at 7:30 p.m., followed by the animated rotation of “The Simpsons” (#4: 4.7/ 7), “Bob’s Burgers” (#4: 2.9/ 4), “Family Guy” (#4: 3.2/ 5) and “American Dad” (#4: 2.5/ 4). As a reminder, “American Dad” moves to TBS in originals next season.
CBS, meanwhile, was on par with recent levels (despite the increased competition) with its rotation of granddaddy “60 Minutes” (#2: 8.0/13), “The Amazing Race” (#3: 5.5/ 8), “The Good Wife” (#3: 6.8/10) and “The Mentalist” (#3: 7.2/12).
