In the 7 o'clock hour opposite Fox's big NFL overrun (San Francisco-Seattle), "America's Funniest Home Videos" was up week to week in Total Viewers (+4%) and Adults 18-49 (+25%), drawing its 2nd-biggest audience this season and hitting a new season-high with young adults.

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.
