In total viewers, NBC also lead with 17.23 million, beating CBS which did 9.61 million, Fox followed with 4.99, and ABC trailed with 4.79 million.
Season to-date (9/23/13-2/9/14) in 18-49, Fox and NBC are tied with a 2.9, CBS is next with a 2.6, and ABC at a 2.1. In total viewers, CBS is still on top with 11.32 million, then NBC 9.49, Fox at 8.47 and ABC 7.46. NBC will be back on top alone in 18-49 after this coming week.
