The 1% Club (0.23, +0.03) was up on Fox and was the top network TV offering of the night, but The Quiz with Balls (0.18, -0.05) had a fairly harsh drop.

With the comedies out of the way, CBS dramas FBI (0.37, +0.09) and CIA (0.25, +0.08) were free to occupy earlier time slots for their respective finales, and both shows were up markedly in the process. On Fox, The 1% Club (0.20, +0.07) and The Quiz with Balls (0.23, +0.10) both bounced back. NBA on NBC (1.84) was the top Adults 18-49 performer of the night overall.

CBS sitcom The Neighborhood (0.43, +0.16) ended its eight-season run by soaring to a new season high, and that appeared to help DMV (0.30, +0.10) close out its one-season run on a high note, as it jumped all the way back up to the high it set in its October debut (0.30). Later, FBI (0.28, 0.00) held steady, and CIA (0.17, -0.03) declined. ABC had its own finale surge as American Idol (0.56, +0.12) ended its season with a significant increase (though NBA on NBC (1.37) was still on top overall).
