A split decision for the Sunday shows on September 23: CBS’ “Face the Nation” wins in Total Viewers and NBC’s “Meet the Press” wins in the A25-54 demographic.

ABC’s “This Week” was third, “Fox News Sunday” was fourth and Univision’s “Al Punto” was fifth.

The shows are up across the board compared to the same week last year, with ABC’s “This Week” up the most: +25% in Total Viewers and +28% in A25-54 viewers.

Cable replays of “Fox News Sunday” averaged a combined 1,985,000 Total Viewers and 384,000 A25-54 viewers.

“Face the Nation” is based on the first half-hour only, as the full contiguous hour airs in just 47% of the country.

The numbers for September 23:

Network Program Total Viewers A25-54
CBS
 “Face the Nation” 3.12M 898K
NBC
 “Meet the Press” 2.96M 902K
ABC “This Week” 2.48M 714K

Despite interviews with President Obama and Mitt Romney, as well as a huge NFL lead-in, the newsmagazine was up against a big NFL game on NBC, and the Emmys on ABC.

Despite the tough competition (and likely thanks to the NFL lead-in and the big interviews), “60 Minutes” did just fine, drawing 12.6 million total viewers, enough to make it the number six primetime program for the week. For comparison, the Emmys drew 13.3 million viewers, while “Sunday Night Football” drew 21.3 million.

The ABC political affairs show takes the top spot in both ratings measurements for the first time since August 2009, beating NBC’s “Meet the Press” by just +2,000 Total Viewers and +65,000 A25-54 viewers.

CBS’ “Face the Nation,” which was shortened to 30 minutes from its usual hour, placed third. The program was preempted in 2% of national ratings markets, and aired at unusual times in other markets, due to the network’s coverage of the U.S. Open.

Compared to the same week last year, “This Week” was the only show to post gains in both ratings measurements: +23% in Total Viewers, +3% in the demographic. “Meet the Press” was up in Total Viewers but down in the demo. “Face the Nation,” “Fox News Sunday” and “Al Punto” were down across the board.

Cable replays of “Fox News Sunday” averaged a combined 2,972,000 Total Viewers and 580,000 A25-54 viewers.

The numbers for September 2:

Network Program Total Viewers A25-54

The occasion? MSNBC’s win Tuesday in primetime, beating CNN and Fox News for the first time ever when all three networks were in head-to-head programming. In the 10pm hour, MSNBC also beat ABC and CBS. Wednesday numbers should be out in a few hours. And because NBC did not air a 10pm special due to the Giants-Cowboys game, MSNBC might have an even better night.

During its second week broadcasting from the Summer Games, the Brian Williams newscast was up +9% in total viewers compared to the second week of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. “Nightly” did see a drop from the first week of the London games when it drew 10.9 million viewers.

No. 2 “World News with Diane Sawyer” trailed by 3 million viewers, but “Nightly’s” week-to-week loss, may have been Sawyer’s gain as ABC grew +5% in the demo.

And while “World News” was down in both measurements compared to the same week last year, the “CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley” grew its viewership (but down slightly in the demo) vs. 2011.

The New York Times‘ Bill Carter and Richard Sandomir report that Ebersol will serve as a “senior adviser,” with a special focus on NBC’s NFL and Olympics coverage.

The move was revealed the same day that NBC announced that “Today” EP Jim Bell would also serve as executive producer of the network’s 2012 Olympics coverage.

“With our additional cameras and enhanced camera positions, including low, court-level positions, viewers will feel like they’re actually on the court with some of the world’s greatest players,” said Harold Byrant, executive producer and vp production at CBS Sports.

The 3D telecasts will be available on DirecTV’s n3D and Comcast’s Xfinity 3D. The men’s and women’s finals will be streamed live in 3D on USOpen.org.

Meanwhile some people (and my hand is raised) think 3D technology is completely overrated and wildly unnecessary.

Co-host Michelle Beadle and guest host Taylor Twellman will lead a 4 p.m. ET live broadcast prior to Wednesday night’s men’s match at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia between the United States and Mexico. The match starts at 9 p.m. and marks the debut of new U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann, who replaced the recently fired Bob Bradley.

Twellman is a former MLS striker and U.S. National Team player.

Alexi Lalas, who competed against Klinsmann as a player, says fans are eager to see what changes in philosophy he brings to the U.S. team.

“This is the start of a new era. He (Klinsmann) wants to show that he is building on the past and doing new things going forward. There is a lot of curiosity and some mystery surrounding Jurgen Klinsmann with what he is going to do for and with the U.S. national men’s team program.

“Whatever he does, it all kicks off with a match against USA’s biggest rival – Mexico. I want to see how the Klinsmann era starts off on and off the field.”
