ACM Ratings Get Carrie-d Away

The last time the Academy of Country Music Awards enjoyed a bigger audience than it did last night, American Idol wasn't around to make Carrie Underwood a star who would help boost the telecast.
Sunday's Underwood-crowning ACMs was watched, on average, by 14.8 million, per preliminary Nielsen estimates, up about 3 million viewers from last year, and the show's biggest crowd since 1998.
Elsewhere on Sunday:
• The post-Dennis Rodman Celebrity Apprentice (7 million, down about 1.5 million from last week) could've used Dennis Rodman.
• At 9 p.m., Family Guy (6.3 million) had a bigger night among adults 18-49 as a rerun than most shows do as originals.
• Desperate Housewives and Brothers & Sisters aided the ACMs' cause by phoning in reruns.
