Ratings: 'Once Upon A Time', 'Revenge' up, while 'Amazing Race' finale dips

While FOX was number one among adults 18-49 for Sunday night, perhaps due to the NASCAR overrun cutting into the primetime schedule, CBS remained on top with total viewers.

On the subject of FOX, week-to-week comparisons are "essentially worthless" until final numbers come in tomorrow, since the NASCAR event cutting into the start of FOX's animation domination lineup pushed the start of the programming bloc to 8:25 (with the start of The Simpsons).

Though CBS ultimately won the night among total viewers, they kicked off the night on the wrong foot as 60 Minutes earned a season low 1.2, down three tenths from last week's 1.5 adults 18-49 rating. The Amazing Race finale scored a 2.3, down a tenth from last week's 2.4 and down four tenths from the 2.7 that last year's spring finale brought in. The Mentalist, meanwhile, was up a tenth from last week's rating, scoring a 1.7 adults 18-49 rating.

On ABC, America's Funniest Home Videos was down a tenth, earning a 1.5 adults 18-49 rating. However, things only improved from there as Once Upon A Time scored a 2.2, up two tenths from last week's series low 2.0 adults 18-49. Meanwhile, Revenge landed a 1.8, up a tenth from last week's 1.7 adults 18-49. The season finale of Red Widow delivered an underwhelming 0.9, but at least it was up two tenths from last week's series low 0.7 adults 18-49 rating.

On NBC, All-Star Celebrity Apprentice scored a 1.4, down two tenths from last week's 1.6 adults 18-49 rating.

Rickey will be by later to update the post once final ratings come in, so expect some of these numbers to shift around a bit, particularly once FOX pieces things together with its schedule.
