In total households, Fox's coverage of the all-star game was the top-rated show on the air, delivering a 9.5 rating and a 17 share. It was the only Fox program in the top 25, with the exception of the 16th-ranked pregame show. But it wasn't enough to carry Fox to victory in the demos. Strong showings from Law & Order and the Dateline interview with Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck gave NBC (5.5/10, 5.88 million) the win over CBS (5.4/10, 5.71 million), Fox (4.4/8, 4.68 million) and ABC (3.5/7, 3.78 million).
The JLo-Affleck interview on Dateline was the week's top-ranked program in adults 18-49 with 5.1/16, 10.6 million viewers overall. It led NBC (2.9/10, 3.7 million) to victory in adults 18-49 ahead of Fox (2.7/9, 3.4 million), CBS (2.5/8, 3.1 million) and ABC (1.8/6, 2.2 million).
