"Glee" was down after last week's post-Super Bowl ratings high, but it still managed to secure the night for FOX in key demos. The CBS block of reruns still easily took the night in average viewers and households.

CBS banked 10.8 million viewers and a 6.9 rating/12 share for the night, topping runner-up FOX (7.95 million, 4.6/8), third place NBC (6.6 million, 4.1/7), fourth place ABC (4.9 million, 3.1/5) and the trailing CW (817,000, .6, 1) -- which never broke the million-viewer mark.

"Glee" helped hand FOX the adults 18-49 demo with a 3.0 rating. NBC came in second with a 2.3, ahead of CBS (1.9), ABC (1.3) and The CW (0.3).
