Most of Hollywood may have been using the Golden Globes as an excuse to party the night away, but viewers at home were more interested in what was happening with football on CBS and ABC's regular Sunday night lineup.

CBS won the night among households with an 11.9 rating/8 share, while ABC came in second with a 10.3/15. NBC was third with a 10.0/15, followed by FOX, 3.6/5, and The WB, 1.8/3.

CBS set the bar at 7 p.m. with the conclusion of the NFL game giving the eye a substantial lead. ABC threw an episode of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" into the ring, 6.7/11, which was enough to beat NBC's Golden Globe preshow, 6.1/10.

"The Simpsons," 4.9/7, and "Arrested Development," 3.4/5, gave FOX its best hour of the night, while "Charmed," 2.3/3, did the same for The WB.

CBS was on the "Cold Case," 9.7/14, and FOX finished its night with a double dose of "Family Guy" averaging a 3.5/5.
