The two-hour season finale of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and two episodes, including the fourth season finale, of Desperate Housewives put ABC well ahead of the competition Sunday night, despite not being able to quite match last year’s finales. CBS saw okay results from its lineup of 60 Minutes and The 43rd Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, which drew more viewers and adults 18-49 from last year’s edition.
Fox followed up in third place led by the season finales of The Simpsons, King of the Hill and American Dad, though all three shows were off a good deal from their year-ago season finale numbers.
NBC was even from the week prior, while The CW rounded out the pack in last place, as the network aired its season finales of Everybody Hates Chris, Aliens in America and The Game.
