A total of 4.11 million viewers watched Sunday night’s episode “What Animated Women Want” – the second-lowest result on record.

A total of 4.66 million viewers watched Sunday night’s episode ‘Gorgeous Grampa’, up against very little in the way competition. Fox was fourth overall for the night and second among adults 18 – 49.

A total of 4.57 million viewers watched Sunday’s episode ‘Hardly Kirk-ing’, placing it as the fifth least-watched episode on record. This weekend there was no ‘big event television’ causing viewers to watch another network.

A total of 5.30 million viewers watched last night’s episode “Changing of the Guardian” – an improvement over the previous episode. The Simpsons did well to attract this audience despite a weak lead-in.

Up against a strong performance by NBC’s Golden Globe Awards, a total of 5.06 million viewers watched Sunday night’s episode of The Simpsons, ‘A Test Before Trying’. The number is at the lower end of the spectrum, but still high enough to keep it out of danger territory.

Last night’s episode, Homer Goes to Prep School, saw a bump up in ratings to 9.65 million viewers.  This is likely due to a strong lead-in from Sunday Night Football on FOX, which ran the show late by 3 minutes.

The overnight ratings showed that 4.41 million viewers watched The Simpsons in its 8pm slot, however, the reality of the situation is that many Fox affiliates had to break into regular programming to show President Obama’s address to the nation.

A total of 7.50 million viewers watched Sunday’s episode “The Day The Earth Stood Cool” – respectable numbers, again boosted by Fox’s NFL overrun and post-game lineup.

‘A Tree Grows In Springfield’ was watched by a healthy 7.53 million viewers, aided by an NFL overrun and post-match show ‘The OT’. Numbers dropped from there onwards, with Bob’s Burgers on 4.73 million viewers, Family Guy with 5.76 million, and The Cleveland Show with 4.32 million viewers.

5.18 million viewers watched Sunday night’s episode ‘Penny-Wiseguys’ – the least-watched episode so far this series, but still good enough to stay out of the danger zone.

With inaccurate overnight ratings due to a late start time (8:20am), we had to wait for the final broadcast figures this week, which show that 6.86 million viewers watched Sunday’s episode ‘Gone Abie Gone’.

A total of 5.65 million viewers watched last night’s episode “Adventures in Baby-Getting”, which makes it the least-watched of the three episodes from this season so far. The episode suffered a delay, originally due to be shown a month ago.
