Sunday’s Numbers
By fred | March 3, 2008
Sunday night was all for ABC. With an always good performing Extreme Makeover and the help of Oprah, the Alphabet had no trouble winning the night, both in total viewers and on the 18-49 demo. (Note however that, as good as those crap did, the combo Desperate Housewives / Brothers & Sisters do better, go scripted!)
At 8.00 Fox should have had The Simpsons, but NASCAR run in late and, therefore, all ratings for the network are subject to change. For now, it looks like The Simpsons had 7.9 million viewers, making it the most-watched show of its slot, right after ABC and their 14.8 million viewers of course.
At 9.00 Oprah was even more watched with 15.6 million viewers, most watched program of the entire night. Meanwhile Family Guy had a good 7 million viewers while King Of The Hill, stealing its lead-in slot, performed better than usual with 7.7 million viewers.
At 10.00 and with a pretty strong lead-in Here Come The Newlyweds had no trouble wining the slot, while it was finally time for Unhitched to premiere ! It with 6 million viewers (85% of its lead-in audience) and a 2.5 on the demo (beating both Dexter and the rerun of Law & Order: SVU) it wasn’t such a bad start.
