Note: The following labels are based on the household overnights and are subject to change given the availability of other pending data streams. The overnights are your first look at what to potentially expect when the other results come in. And we always take into account other benchmarks including the expected demographic ratings, potential DVR usage, the critical acclaim (or lack of) and the social media presence. Keep in mind, as always, that results for any live sporting event are always approximate.

-Winners:
“Sunday Night Football” (NBC), “60 Minutes” (CBS), “Once Upon a Time” (ABC), “Madam Secretary” (CBS), “The Simpsons” (Fox)

-Losers (excluding repeats):
Nothing…each of the networks resonated at some point during the evening.

Ratings Breakdown:
The New England Patriots at the Indianapolis Colts on “Sunday Night Football” kept NBC in the overnight winners circle with an estimated 13.3 rating/21 share in households from 9-11:30 p.m. ET. The peak half-hour was 9 p.m., which scored a 14.5/21, and this match-up was 27 percent above the 10.5/17 for Chicago at Green Bay one week earlier (which translated into 18.13 million viewers and as 6.5 rating/18 share among adults 18-49, based on the Live + Same Day data).

Earlier in the evening on NBC was pre-game “Football Night in America” at a 2.2/ 3 at 7 p.m. (#4), a 4.3/ 7 at 7:30 p.m. (#3) and an 8.6/13 in the 8 p.m. half-hour.

Over at older skewing CBS, the overnight results were at now typically positive total viewer results with its combination of “60 Minutes” (#2: 8.9/14), freshman drama “Madam Secretary” (#1: 8.8/13), critically acclaimed “The Good Wife” (#2: 7.4/11) and veteran “CSI” (#2: 5.8/10), which could be concluding this spring given that its current season episode order was reduced from 22 to 18. Year-ago Sunday 8 p.m. occupant “The Amazing Race,” which has lost steam anchoring Friday, brought in more young adult viewers. But, year-to-year, worthy “Madam Secretary” increased by 44 percent in the household overnights. In other words, even shows with a 50+ targeted base can be considered “winners.”

Elsewhere, Fox got a boost courtesy of a primetime football overrun, which scored a dominant 12.5/20 in the 7 p.m. half-hour into a 7.2/11 (#2) for post-game “The OT” at 7:30 p.m. Next on Fox was animated granddaddy “The Simpsons” at a 4.3/ 6 at 8 p.m., which should translate into the vicinity of a 3.0 rating among adults 18-49, followed by sophomore “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” at a 3.0/ 4 at 8:30 p.m., which is expected to lose about a full rating point in the demo.

In time period premiere news, Fox’s animated “Bob’s Burgers” moved into the 9:30 p.m. half-hour with a 2.0/ 3 (#4) in the overnights, which was 33 percent above the 1.5/ 2 for “Mulaney” one week earlier. And the overnight retention for “Bob’s Burgers” out of “Family Guy”(#4: 2.9/ 4) was an improved 69 percent (versus 52 percent for “Mulaney” last week). “Mulaney” moves into the Sunday 9:30 p.m. half-hour on Nov. 23.

On ABC, sophomore drama “Resurrection” was pre-empted by two hours of “Once Upon a Time,” which scored a 4.1/ 6 from 8-10 p.m. Comparably, the 9-10 p.m. portion of the fantasy drama (4.0/ 6) built from the 3.2/ 5 for “Resurrection” one week earlier by 25 percent (and the two-hours should translate into about a 2.5 rating in adults 18-49). Tired “Revenge,” meanwhile, was flat from last week at a 3.8/ 6 at 10 p.m. (#3), which was 52 percent above failed year-ago occupant “Betrayal” (2.5/ 4 on 11/17/13).

At 7 p.m. on ABC was veteran “America’s Funniest Home Videos” at a 3.8/ 6 (#3), which was on par with both the week-ago and year-ago telecasts.

About the Daily Ratings

Each day (except Sunday) during the main TV Season we post the TV Ratings for the previous nights primetime shows for the major broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, CW, FOX, NBC). Cable Network ratings will be added to the Ratings Database.

The first item that gets posted (normally around 2pm GMT) is the early overnight analysis based on the early household numbers (these are not the same as the Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers that are posted later).

Next, if available, we will post the Top 25 Market 18-49 Ratings to give you a rough idea of the ratings to following.

Later on (normally between 4pm-5pm GMT) we post the official early overnight Total Viewers and 18-49 Demo numbers in the table above.

Finally, later in the evening (10pm-11pm GMT) or the following day, the final adjusted ratings numbers are released, these are then posted in the Ratings Database. The Final Adjusted numbers are what we use for all our Renew/Cancellation Tables, Full Season Tables, Ratings Scorecards etc (see below). Friday's Final Adjusted Ratings are normally available on the following Monday.
