Ratings Analysis: Airing right after the 7PM 'Beijing Gold' telecast (0.55), the '2022 Winter Olympics' (0.95, -0.01) ticked down to its weakest rating yet for the closing ceremony. NBC used that lead-in to preview 'America's Got Talent: Extreme' (0.50) at 10:30, but the spinoff series barely retained half of the 'Olympics' rating. CBS had a solid edition of '60 Minutes' (0.52) that helped 'Celebrity Big Brother' (0.50, +0.24) rebound from Saturday's horrific showing. Reruns of 'The Equalizer' (0.22) and 'SWAT' (0.20) tapered off from there. ABC had a strong rerun of 'America's Funniest Home Videos' (0.49), but 2021 film 'Summer of Soul' (0.15) and a repeat of 'The Wonder Years' (0.11) were at disastrous levels, even by current TV rating standards. Over on Fox, a sneak-peek 'Masked Singer' special (0.54) performed quite well in the 7PM slot. Reruns of 'Call Me Kat' (0.27), 'The Simpsons' (0.25), 'The Great North' (0.21), 'Bob's Burgers' (0.21), and 'Family Guy' (0.24) were relatively in the same range. The finale of 'Two Sentence Horror Stories' (0.05/0.05) was up by two-hundredths from its last pair of originals (0.03/0.03) on the CW. An encore of 'All American' (0.04) started off the night at 8.
Finals Update: '2022 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony' (+0.3), 'Celebrity Big Brother' (+0.1), 'America's Got Talent: Extreme Preview' (+0.2), and the repeat of 'America's Funniest Home Videos' (+0.1) adjusted up. 'The Masked Singer Sneak Peak' (-0.2) adjusted down.
