NFL games have been known to inflate the FOX primetime lineup and Sunday night was no exception.
The primetime portion of Minnesota’s last-second win over New Orleans drew more than 34 million viewers and this resulted in a surge for the programs that aired after the game on FOX with all of them seeing season highs in the 18-49 demo. The Simpsons hit a 3.5 rating among adults 18-49 and 8.57 million viewers, Bob’s Burgers drew a 2.2 demo score and 5.10 million viewers, Family Guy’s 300th episode snagged a 1.7 demo rating and 3.94 million viewers and The Last Man on Earth ended their night with a 1.3 demo score and 3.66 million viewers.
On CBS, the season (series?) finale of Wisdom of the Crowd was even with last week’s 0.7 demo score and 5.90 million viewers. NCIS: Los Angeles (1.0, 8.98 million viewers) and Madam Secretary (0.7, 7.08 million viewers) were each up a tenth.
