Preliminary Analysis: Fox's 'The Simpsons' (1.5) enjoyed another night of assistance from NFL Overrun (4.4) and 'The OT' (4.2), rising two-tenths from last week's football-boosted episode. But the momentum did not seep into the rest of the lineup as 'Bless the Harts' (0.7) only managed to match its last installment and the 9pm duo of 'Bob's Burgers' (0.6) & 'Family Guy' (0.6) each lost a tenth. On ABC, the 2020 'American Music Awards' (1.0) plunged by over 40% when compared to last November's 1.7 A18-49 rating. The ceremony did not have much lead-in help as 'AFV' (0.5) took an alarming three-tenth decline from its week-ago outing. NBC had a strong showing of 'Football Night in America' (1.7/4.0) and the 'Chiefs v. Raiders' NFL game (4.2). CBS's '60 Minutes' (0.9) lost six-tenths from last week's Obama-boosted episode while 'NCIS: Los Angeles' (0.6) held even and 'NCIS: New Orleans' (0.5) actually rose a tenth. 'Pandora' (0.1) inched up on the CW and led into a steady edition of 'The Outpost' (0.1).
Finals Update: On Fox, 'NFL Overrun' (6.1, +1.7), 'The OT' (6.1, +1.9), and 'Bob's Burgers' (0.7, +0.1) adjusted up. NBC's 'Chiefs v. Raiders' NFL game (5.4, +1.2) and ABC's 'AFV' (0.6, +0.1) also adjusted up. On the CW, 'Pandora' (0.0, -0.1) adjusted down.
