ABC’s 20/20 special on the Royal Family lifted the network to first place on the evening among households and viewers, despite the poor performance from lead-out October Road.
Fox, however, managed to tie with ABC among adults 18-49 thanks to two back-to-back episodes of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, including the first season finale.
Elsewhere on the evening, NBC placed third with its combination of reality (My Dad Is Better Than Your Dad and Deal or No Deal) and Medium.
CBS took third, while The CW’s new edition of The Pussycat Dolls Present continues to perform poorly, leaving that network in a very distant last place.

Oprah’s Big Give powered ABC to an easy Sunday night victory among total audience and adults 18-49. The series got off a terrific start, drawing in more than 15 million viewers (first place for the evening) and a 5.3 A18-49 rating (also first for the evening).
Fox trailed in second place with its coverage of NASCAR, and its usual mix of comedies, drawing a solid adult 18-49 audience, just narrowly trailing ABC in that demo.
Elsewhere on the evening, CBS remained on par with prior Sunday’s, as the re-purposed episodes of Dexter continue to do well closing out the evening for the network.
Though well back in fourth place on the evening, NBC was relatively competitive, trailing third place CBS only minimally.
The CW, meanwhile, saw only a minimal increase in viewership, with its slightly tweaked lineup that included the return of comedies Everybody Hates Chris and Aliens in America.

CBS carried the evening with another strong performance by Price is Right, which was the nights most watched program among households and viewers, while Fox was a competitive second place thanks to repeats of Bones and House.
Elsewhere on the evening, the second week of Amne$ia fared poorly, dipping by 31% among viewers and 42% among adults 18-49, however, NBC’s evening was saved somewhat by better than average performances for two editions of Dateline.
ABC and The CW trailed in fourth and fifth, respectively.
