Sunday night had lots of season finales. On ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos started off the night up four tenths in viewers and down a tenth in the demo. At 8pm, the season finale of Once Upon a Time was down two tenths in viewers but up a tenth in the demo for its best number since March 17. Still, this show premiered this year with a 3.9 demo so it has fallen hard this season. At 9pm, a two hour season finale of Revenge was down two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. I think it's very surprising that this show is staying at 9pm next season because I don't see it rebounding. At 9pm, Celebrity Apprentice got pummeled by the competition as it was down six tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo for a series low. The wheels have finally come off for this show which is why it's not coming back to Sundays at midseason next year (as of now).

On CBS, 60 Minutes was down four tenths in viewers but up three tenths in the demo. At 8pm, Survivor was down half a demo point for an all time low among its finales. It was right in line with where it has been all season though, it just didn't spike for the finale as much as it usually does. Maybe CBS should consider airing the finale in its regular Wednesday timeslot next year? FOX had its animated lineup including season finales for Bob's Burgers and American Dad!. Some cartoons were up while others were down. They all hovered around 4 million viewers and a 2 demo except for the cancelled The Cleveland Show. This lineup needs a shot in the arm but FOX is keeping it in tact for the fall at least.
