"America's Funniest Home Videos" (7:00-8:00 p.m. - 6.7 million and 1.2/3 in AD18-49):

In the 7 o'clock hour opposite CBS' big NFL overrun, "America's Funniest Home Videos" grew its overall audience by 3% week to week.

"Once Upon a Time" (8:00-9:00 p.m. - 6.6 million and 1.9/5 in AD18-49):

Returning after the prior week's preemption for the "AMAs," ABC's "Once Upon a Time" surged 58% over its Adult 18-49 lead-in at 8:00 p.m. to rank as Sunday's No. 1 scripted broadcast.

· "Once Upon a Time" held steady with its 2-week ago delivery in Adults 18-49, while gaining 15% in Adults 18-34 to match a 4-week high - since 11/3/13.

· The ABC drama was once again Sunday's most social broadcast series with 66,293 tweets, up +4% from the last episode to its 2nd-highest number this season - since its season premiere on 9/29/13.

A note about increasing DVR penetration and year-to-year rating comparisons: Year-to-year rating comparisons based on the Live + Same Day data stream are distorted by the level of DVR penetration in the Nielsen sample, which has jumped up to 48% currently, from 46% at the same point in 2012. More viewers are watching shows on their own timetables, which may not be reflected in the overnight next day numbers. The only truly valid year-to-year comparison would be one based on the Live + 7 Day metric, once those stats are released by Nielsen.
