On Easter night, CBS had a surprisingly healthy performance from a Grammy Salute to the Bee Gees. It skewed old but still got over 10 million viewers, no small feat these days. I think that even surprised CBS. It didn't help Elementary, which was down nine tenths in viewers and two tenths in the demo. The other networks were pretty steady. Perhaps they have fallen so low that Easter doesn't cause a dent like it used to. On ABC, Once Upon a Time was down a tenth in viewers and even in the demo, Match Game was down six tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo, and American Crime was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo. Finally on NBC, Chicago Justice was down six tenths in viewers and a tenth in the demo while Shades of Blue was up a tenth in viewers and even in the demo.

WINNER OF THE NIGHT: Stayin' Alive: A Grammy Salute to the Bee Gees (CBS)

LOSER OF THE NIGHT: Elementary (CBS)
