Due to the nature of live programming the ratings for NBC (NFL Football), CBS (which was delayed 41 minutes in several major markets due to football overruns) & FOX (Football Overruns) are approximate and subject to more than the typical adjustments in the final numbers. See below for more information on these Fast Affiliate Ratings.
NBC was number one among adults 18-49 and with total viewers.
On NBC, Sunday Night Football (Eagles/Cowboys) scored a preliminary 6.6 adults 18-49 rating from 8:30-11:00PM, down from last week's 7.6 rating.
On FOX, The Cleveland Show earned 1.6, down four tenths from last week's 2.0 rating. Bob's Burgers garnered a x from last week's 2.0adults 18-49 rating. American Dad notched a 2.0, down a tenth from its last original's 2.1 adults 18-49 rating.
On ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos was even with last week's 1.6 adults 18-49 rating.Once Upon A Time was also even with last week's 3.1. Your predictions were a little too optimistic .Revenge garnered a 2.4, up two tenths from last week's season low 2.2 adults 18-49 rating. 666 Park Avenue notched a 1.4, also up two tenths from last week's 1.2 adults 18-49 rating.
Due to overruns, CBS ratings are scrambled and essentially worthless until we get the finals tomorrow.

Definitions:
Fast Affiliate Ratings: These first national ratings, including demographics, are available at approximately 11 AM (ET) the day after telecast, and are released to subscribing customers daily. These data, from the National People Meter sample, are strictly time-period information, based on the normal broadcast network feed, and include all programming on the affiliated stations, sometimes including network programming, sometimes not. The figures may include stations that did not air the entire network feed, as well as local news breaks or cutaways for local coverage or other programming. Fast Affiliate ratings are not as useful for live programs and are likely to differ significantly from the final results, because the data reflect normal broadcast feed patterns. For example, with a World Series game, Fast Affiliate Ratings would include whatever aired from 8-11PM on affiliates in the Pacific Time Zone, following the live baseball game, but not game coverage that begins at 5PM PT. The same would be true of Presidential debates as well as live award shows and breaking news reports.
Rating: Estimated percentage of the universe of TV households (or other specified group) tuned to a program in the average minute. Ratings are expressed as a percent.
Share (of Audience): The percent of households (or persons) using television who are tuned to a specific program, station or network in a specific area at a specific time. (See also, Rating, which represents tuning or viewing as a percent of the entire population being measured.)
Time Shifted Viewing – Program ratings for national sources are produced in three streams of data – Live, Live+Same Day (Live+SD) and Live+7 Day. Time shifted figures account for incremental viewing that takes place with DVRs. Live+Same Day (Live+SD) include viewing during the same broadcast day as the original telecast, with a cut-off of 3:00AM local time when meters transmit daily viewing to Nielsen for processing. Live+7 Day ratings include incremental viewing that takes place during the 7 days following a telecast.

Revenge will prob get adjusted up to a 2.5, which puts it well ahead of most of ABC’s other dramas, minus Grey’s and Once Upon. The real important thing is that it also handily won its time slot vs other non football. All is good at Revenge camp
Unless the assassination atempt on a sitting president ploy works, Scandal will have to make due with a “let’s keep Shonda happy” renewal.
Max just shut up how can you say that Revenge isnt a hit when scandal would kill for revenge numbers!!
revenge suprisingly low. but im glad. viewers are tired – I know I am. if the show ends this (doubtful) or next year, I think I will watch all the episodes I missed. but if they go longer, and have even more boring soapy b, c, d and z-plots, I won’t return.
Indeed, Revenge is not in the best shape but it’s pretty good because don’t forget The Walking Dead on AMC…
Max, your SCANDAL can SUCK IT!
Revenge went up, though it is down from last winter finale?.
The last episode of Scandal was promoted like anything yet it pulled a meagre 2.2
Do you wake up every Monday & just keep refreshing til the ratings come up.
Always the first comment & only comments on Revenge. You freakin loser.
You know its quite ok to start watching it, i can tell you all about it. We won’t judge you.
Max,
You’re just a creep. Sitting, waiting, trolling.
GO Revenge !!!
Also, can I point out that the picture of Barbara Hershey for this post is fabulous? She is rocking on Once Upon right now. Her and Hook make me wanna cross over to the dark side haha
@Steve
True..
Hook-Cora vs Regina-Rumple
BRING IT ON!!!
I think Max is my favourite commenter on this site. No one gets nearly as much attention as he does, haha.
who knew that mediocre Dallas team and a bad Philly team would pull that number.oh yeah its the NFC.
Revenge and OUAT were such good episodes
Thats what I guessed for OUAT and Revenge, I thought it was weird people thought they would increase a half a ratings point, especially Revenge. It’s just a busy night
fox repeats did better than the original episodes…
good for once upon a time
sucky teams for football…neither will make the playoffs.
American Dad did better out of a Family Guy repeat than The Cleveland Show did last week out of a Family Guy original. I wouldn’t be surprised if Cleveland doesn’t get an order for another cycle.
I don’t understand the reasoning behind airing a new Bob’s Burgers out of a Simpsons repeat and a new American Dad out of a Family Guy repeat.
Good for Revenge; last night’s episode was one of the season’s strongest, even though I miss Emily being the central figure of the show. She’s taken the backseat to the myriad supporting players this year.
Also… y’all are crazy. You say you hate Max so much, yet here you are every Monday morning waiting with bated breath to respond to him.
I can’t believe all the replies towards Max, just ignore him and trash pathetic Scandal which only got a full season because ABC is in bad shape.
At least Revenge rose, would have liked higher but decent.
Abit surprised about once not increasing least it didn’t drop but happy with Revenge going up and now looking forward to seeing The Walking Dead ratings
