Ratings Analysis: Fox did not have any direct NFL help for the night, so 'The Simpsons' (0.39, -0.69) and 'Krapopolis' (0.27, -0.24) were way down from their week-ago episodes. For what its worth, 'Krapopolis' did about as well as 'The Great North' probably would have done in this slot, give or take a few hundredths. 'Bob's Burgers' (0.30, -0.09) and 'Family Guy' (0.26, -0.05) had much smaller declines since they hardly get much NFL help to begin with, but 'Family Guy' was, alarmingly, only a hundredth higher than its series low. On CBS, the 'NFL Overrun' (5.59) pushed '60 Minutes' (1.11, +0.65) above the 1.0 mark in the 18-49 demographic. 'Yellowstone' (0.40, +0.14) and 'Big Brother' (0.44, +0.06) also built on their week-ago installments. 'America's Funniest Home Videos' (0.31, -0.04) dipped from its premiere and led into a showing of 2021 film 'Cruella' (0.22). Though it did have less lead-in support, 'Cruella' was a good bit below last week's 'Jungle Cruise' (0.28). The 'Cowboys v. 49ers' NFL game (6.63) was slightly lower than last week's game (6.67) on NBC. The CW had a stable edition of 'The Chosen' (0.04, 0.00) and encores of 'World's Funniest Animals' (0.02/0.02).
Finals Update: 'NFL Overrun' (+1.1), 'Family Guy' (+0.1), and 'NFL: Cowboys v. 49ers' (+1.7) adjusted up. The repeat of 'The Simpsons' (-0.5) and 'Football Night in America' (-1.0) adjusted down.
