CBS TV Ratings for Sunday, March 4, 2012

The Tiffany network had mixed results last night, per the fast affiliate ratings. CSI: Miami, 60 Minutes, and The Good Wife were all down when compared to their last originals. Good Wife actually hit a new series low. The Amazing Race was up significantly however — mostly thanks to last week’s episode taking a big hit when it aired opposite the Oscars. Still, CBS has found a way to spin the numbers in their press release.
