Elsewhere, second-place CBS had nothing unusual to report with its combination of veteran “60 Minutes” (#2: 5.6/ 9 at 8 p.m.), freshman family drama “God Friended Me” (#2: 5.0/ 8 at 8 p.m.), “NCIS: Los Angeles” (#2: 5.1/ 8 at 9 p.m.) and “Madam Secretary” (#2: 4.0/ 7).

On ABC, “America’s Funniest Home Videos” moved into the Sunday 8 p.m. hour with a third-place 2.8/ 4 in the household overnights, which did not benefit lead-out “Shark Tank” (#3: 2.5/ 4 at 9 p.m.). And Fox was at typically depressed Sunday overnight levels. The CW was in repeats.
