ABC technically won the night, with a “Celebrity Family Feud” replay leading the way at a 0.6 rating among adults 18-49 and 4.1 million total viewers. “America’s Funniest Home Videos” came second with a 0.5 and around 4.3 million viewers. Replays of “Press Your Luck” and “Match Game” both mustered up a 0.4 rating. 2.9 million pairs of eyeballs tuned in to the former, 2.8 million to the latter.
