Today, traditional TV still accounts for the lion’s share of video viewing, but online and mobile are where the growth is. From fourth quarter 2012 to fourth-quarter 2013, the hours consumers spent watching online video grew 30%. When managed together, TV/digital/mobile hold the potential to drive real impact for advertisers—enabling them to maximize the customers they reach and/or reinforce key messaging across screens. After all, ‘It’s all about screens’.

For Sunday, November 23, 2014 (Posted 11.24.14)
NBC #1 on Sunday as ‘Sunday Night Football’ top program.
NBC
The Peacock Network gave us another night of football. And, the game was exciting. At 7P, ‘Football Night in America’ drew 6.51 million viewers and a 1.8/3; At 730P, ‘Football Night in America’ drew 10.45 million viewers and a 4.5/7, and at 8P, ‘Football Night in America’ drew 15.61 million viewers and a 7.9/12. At 830P, ‘Sunday Night Football’ featuring the victorious Dallas Cowboys at the New York Giants pull in 19.77 million viewers and an estimated 14.0/22, which was 5%t above the 13.3/21 in the overnights for New England at Indianapolis one week earlier which translated into 20.82 million viewers.
CBS
The Tiffany Network has, over the years, built up a powerful programming block on Sunday. It began decades ago with ‘Ed Sullivan’. Sunday is a tradition at CBS. On this Sunday, before all of that, at 7P, the ‘Football Overrun’ drew a huge 25.8 million viewers and an 18.2/30. At 745P, ’60 Minutes’ delivered 18.45 million viewers and an 11.5/17. At 845P, ‘Madam Secretary’ in an episode about Mothers and Daughters, along with a crisis involving Iraq’s leaders in the State Department, drew 12.57 million viewers and a 8.8/13. At 945P, ‘The Good Wife’ began its ultimate set up of a doomed partner and the eventual end of the trusted investigator. It drew 10.14 million viewers and a 7.5/12. At 1045P, ‘CSI’ in a great episode involving the murder of a wife who was in drug recovery, drew 8.5 million viewers and a 5.5/10. It was Must See TV ON DEMAND for this cornerstone of the Tiffany police procedurals. ‘The Mentalist’ returns in this time slot next week.
ABC
The Alphabet Network gave us a special on this Sunday evening in the November sweeps. At 7P, ‘America’s Funniest Home Videos’ finished with 7.0 million viewers and a 4.1/7, which was 17% above the 3.5/6 on the year-ago evening. For the balance of the evening, beginning at 8P, ‘The 2014 American Music Awards’ drew 11.55 million viewers and a 7.5 rating/11 share, peaking from 9-10P with a 7.7/11. Comparably, this was 9% below the 8.2/12 in the overnights on the year-ago evening. Given ‘The American Music Awards’ faced football and the powerful CBS dramas, proves there is plenty of available audience in the same time period for different types of programming.
Univision
The #1 Hispanic Network in America beat FOX but that was about it on this Sunday. At 7P, ‘Aqui y Ahora’ finished with a 0.9 A18-49 rating, good for fourth in that demo. At 8P, ‘Va Por Ti’ went up a bit to 1.0 A18-49 rating. At 9P, ‘Va Por Ti’ went up to 1.3 A18-49 as it moved up to fourth in the demo again. Then at 10P, ‘Sal y Pimienta’ fell back down to 1.0 A18-49 rating in the demo. All it could do was finish ahead of the Animal Network of Broadcast most of the night.
FOX
The Animal Network of Broadcast just didn’t fare that well on this Sunday. At 7P, a rerun of ‘The Simpsons’ led off the FOX evening with 2.66 million viewers and a 1.8/3. At 730P, ‘Mulaney’ dropped to a series-low with 1.64 million viewers and a 1.1/2, which was 39% ‘The Simpsons’. FOX was burning off the remaining episodes of ‘Mulaney’. It’s all about the money. With that weak lead-in, at 8P, the regularly scheduled episode of ‘The Simpsons’ dropped to a season-low 3.49 million viewers and a 2.3/3. It was followed at 830P by an also season-low ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ with 3.02 million viewers and a 2.0/3. Fox populated the 9P a rerun of ‘Family Guy’ drew 2.47 million viewers and a 1.7/2. At 930P, ‘Bob’s Burgers’ drew 1.92 million viewers and a 1.4/2.
