Disney Family Singalong 2
ABC

Mother’s Day really brought the viewers to ABC on Sunday. Disney Family Singalong Volume II grabbed the top spot with the 18-49 demo (1.3 rating) but fell in total viewers from the first special that aired on April 16 (10.3 million). In the following time slot from 8-10 p.m. on ABC, the penultimate episode of American Idol‘s third ABC season — with live shows being held remotely due to COVID-19 — came in at second place for the night with a 1.0 rating.

In total viewers, CBS’s 60 Minutes once again took the night in total viewers with 9.33 million viewers. Also on CBS, the three-hour block for the network’s Sunday Night Movie, Forrest Gump, rose slightly over last week’s airing of Raiders of the Lost Ark (5.2 million).
