(R) = repeat
CBS preempted their Saturday lineup in favor of NCAA coverage (4.8), it was easily the top program of the night and was 990.91% higher than an average episode of Ransom.
None of the other networks could hold a candle to CBS, the alphabet network was the closest with encores of The Goldbergs (0.3), Imaginary Mary (0.4), and 20/20 (0.5).
FOX had a repeat of the Bones series finale (0.3) leading into an even more anemic repeat of APB (0.2).
NBC had an uncharacteristically bad night as they preempted their normal 8-10 lineup for Figure Skating (0.2) and it definitely did not pay off. The former ended up hurting SNL Vintage (0.4), the latter fell well below its normal delivery.
