An hour long appearance by Sen. Barack Obama helped NBC's Meet the Press into another first place finish, in the Sunday morning show ratings last week.

Also performing strong was ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, which finished second in Total Viewers, after a Sen. Hillary Clinton town hall.

In the A25-54 demo, NBC finished first, followed by CBS, ABC and FOX.

The Tim Russert-moderated Meet the Press tallied 4,346,000 Total Viewers, compared to This Week with 2,897,000, Face the Nation with 2,846,000 and Fox News Sunday with 1,453,000.

All programs, except Fox News Sunday, saw week-to-week gains (FNS had Obama on last week).
