On Sunday night, CBS had a huge NFL overrun thanks to a close and exciting game between the Patriots and Giants. It went nearly a full hour into primetime so 60 Minutes and the dramas started 27 minutes later than scheduled. As usual, 60 Minutes benefited the most as it soared to season highs. It's amazing that this show can swing from as low as a 1.0 demo on non football lead-in nights to a 3.6 when it has a football lead-in. Of course, there's always the question of how many people just leave their TVs on. Madam Secretary followed and was even in viewers and up a tenth in the demo for its best performance in over a month. The Good Wife was up two tenths in viewers and even in the demo and CSI: Cyber was up a tenth in viewers and two tenths in the demo for its best demo number since the season premiere. Despite a close Cardinals-Seahawks game, NBC had its second weakest result for Sunday Night Football this season.

On ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos was down three tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. Two hours of Once Upon a Time followed and it was even with last week's one hour episode. The worst news for ABC was at 10pm where Quantico couldn't capitalize with the much better lead-in. It was down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo. This show has been a huge gainer in DVR, however. Finally, FOX was low again with no NFL lead-in but most shows were actually up despite a repeat of The Simpsons at 8pm. Bob's Burgers, however, was down eight tenths in viewers and four tenths in the demo. It did have an NFL lead-in in some markets last week. Brooklyn Nine-Nine followed a repeat but was even in viewers and up a tenth in the demo. Family Guy was up three tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo and The Last Man on Earth was up two tenths in viewers and the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: 60 Minutes (CBS)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Quantico (ABC)
