2. “Politically Inept, With Homer Simpson” (season 23) – 5.11 million

5. “Four Great Women and a Manicure” (season 20) – 5.16 million

The next installment of ‘Napoleon Dynamite’ followed, with 4.43 million viewers, which, comparatively is not that bad for a new show, but in the bigger picture, makes it no more successful than Bob’s Burgers or Allen Gregory. At 9.00, Family Guy had 5.91 million viewers, while American Dad ended the night with 4.76 million.

Fox was in clear fourth place overall as well as among adults 18-49. The next new episode ‘The Daughter Also Rises’, airs on February 12.

But as SpringFace expands and Springfield’s fixation with the site causes mass hysteria, Lisa begins to realize that adding thousands of friends online did not compare to having real friendships.

The Simpsons continues with an all new episode this Sunday January 8, titled ‘Politically Inept, with Homer Simpson.’ Homer lands his own political talk show after a video featuring his impassioned rant on poor treatment at the airport goes viral. As his talk show quickly gains popularity nationwide, Homer becomes the spokesperson for the Gravy Movement and the voice of America’s newest political party. But when ill-informed Homer is asked to select the next Republican nominee for President and officially endorses right-wing rock star Ted Nugent (guest voicing as himself), Marge and Lisa worry that Homer’s opinion and influence might be more powerful than he realizes.

The Cleveland Show (4.98 million) took the place of Allen Gregory this week, though you wouldn’t know it based purely on the results. It might take viewers a few weeks to notice this scheduling change. A new Family Guy followed with 6.05 million viewers, while American Dad ended the night on 4.99 million viewers.

The big winner for the night was NBC’s Sunday Night Football (peaking at 24.02 million), while The Amazing Race finale on CBS had 13.68 million viewers. ABC’s ‘Once Upon A Time’ had 8.91 mllion at 8.00pm.

Fox finished fourth overall for the night but placed third among adults 18 – 49.

That was the last new episode of The Simpsons for the year, but if you missed the episode (which has received high acclaim on fan forums), it will rerun Friday night at 9.30pm and again on Christmas Day if you’re into watching TV on that night. The next new episode is “Politically Inept, With Homer Simpson” which will air January 8. Last night’s episode can be rated below with a choice of five humorous Christmas carol selections (re-used from last year, no less… sshhhhut uuuuuup):

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and the Simpsons flash-forward thirty years to find themselves in a tech-savvy, futuristic Springfield. Bart and Lisa have children of their own and decide to spend the holidays as one big family at Homer and Marge’s house. Lisa and Bart turn to Homer and Marge for parenting advice and begin to realize that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

The episode is set in Christmas 30 years in the future, where Homer and Marge are empty nesters and Bart, Lisa and Maggie bring their own kids over to see Homer and Marge for Christmas. Bart is now a lousy, deadbeat dad who actually lives in the school, which is now condos, and Skinner is his landlord. Bart has had two kids and is divorced and Lisa is married to Milhouse. Adult Bart and Lisa get drunk in the Treehouse, talking about their family.

Allen Gregory scored far worse, 3.97 million viewers tuned in this week, while the rest of us stayed away, but could hear the sounds of a sharpening axe looming in the distance. Against recent trends, Family Guy managed to recover Fox for the night, with 6.04 million viewers, toppling The Simpsons for the first time in a while. American Dad rounded out the night with 4.79 million viewers.

Fox was fourth placed overall as well as among adults 18-49.

Another new episode, “The Man in the Blue Flannel Pants” airs next Sunday night.

Lisa becomes disheartened when she learns the shocking truth behind the ‘tween lit’ industry and her beloved fantasy novel characters. But Homer decides to cash in on the craze and forms a team to group-write the next ‘tween lit’ hit, with the king of fantasy, Neil Gaiman (guest-voicing as himself), lending his expertise to the effort. After catching the eye of a slick industry publisher (guest-voice Andy Garcia) at the Springfield Book Fair, the team gets an advanced copy of their work and discovers that the corporate lit business is a bigger operation than they imagined.
