On Sunday night, NBC had a repeat of Little Big Shots and that led to a big drop for The Carmichael Show. Without its big lead-in, Carmichael plunged 1.8 million viewers and four tenths in the demo. I know NBC loves this show but it has not proven itself worthy of a third season and this is the most glaring example of why. At 9:30pm, Crowded was down a million viewers and two tenths in the demo from last week's 9:30 episode. The only positive news is it held on 100% to its lead-in. At 10pm, Dateline NBC was down 1.6 million viewers and three tenths in the demo. On ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos was up two tenths in viewers and three tenths in the demo. At a 1.2 demo, it tied for the best demo of the night. For a 7pm show that has been on over 25 years! At 8pm, Once Upon a Time was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. At 9pm, The Family was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. Quantico closed out the night down two tenths in viewers and even in the demo.

It was a very steady night for CBS through the first three hours. At 7pm, 60 Minutes was down four tenths in viewers and even in the demo while Madam Secretary was even in viewers and up a tenth in the demo. These shows skew so old but very shows get this many total viewers on a regular basis. At 9pm, The Good Wife was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. At 10pm, Elementary was down three tenths in viewers and even in the demo. Finally on FOX, Bordertown was even in viewers and down a tenth in the demo. At 8pm, The Simpsons was up two tenths in viewers and even in the demo while Bob's Burgers was up two tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo. After another Family Guy repeat, The Last Man on Earth was down four tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo to tie a series low.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: America's Funniest Home Videos (ABC)
LOSER OF THE NIGHT: The Carmichael Show (NBC)
