Surging over its lead-in (+50%) at 8pm against season-premiere competition (CBS' Amazing Race) and the 500th episode of Fox's The Simpsons, ABC's Once Upon a Time stood as Sunday's top-rated show and dominated its hour among Adults 18-49.

Building week to week by double digits in viewers (+17%) and young adults (+22%), ABC's Desperate Housewives registered as the 2nd-most-watched show overall during the 9 o'clock hour, outdrawing NBC's season premiere of The Apprentice. The ABC drama ranked #1 in its time slot with key Women (W18-49/W25-54).
