(Recall that the 2009 premieres of "Desperate Housewives" and "Brothers & Sisters" already fell 37% and 35% respectively from their 2008 premieres; both shows are now below even those levels.) * “60 Minutes” got a big boost from CBS’ football overrun, but ratings momentum drained away by the time the network’s “Three Rivers” and “Cold Case” rolled around; both dramas hit season lows. * Fox snuck a new episode of “Brothers” in at 7 p.m. (TV Guide told us to expect a “Cleveland” repeat) and, in its first airing outside the Fox Friday Death Slot, the Strahan sitcom hit its (very low) best number ever. James Hibberd’s analysis is here.
