ET sister show Inside Edition garnered a 3.3/7, up 10% from last year.
NBCU's Access and Warner Bros.' Extra did not see annual increases for their Oscars coverage due to the fact that last year NBC stations were airing wall-to-wall coverage of the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.

In daytime, many shows saw preemptions on Friday, Feb. 15, for coverage of President Donald Trump's declaration of a national emergency at the U.S.' southern border.

CTD's Hot Bench remained at its season-high 2.6 for a third straight week and was daytime's third-highest ranked show for the sixth week in a row.
Warner Bros.' People's Court stayed at a 1.5. Warner Bros.' Judge Mathis moved up 10% to a 1.1. Twentieth's Divorce Court recovered 14% to a 0.8.
CTD's Dr. Phil was the only talker in the top tier to improve for the week, climbing 3% to a 3.3, matching its season high and leading the category for the 128th consecutive week with five ties. Among daytime's key demographic of women 25-54, Phil also led with a 1.5.
Live held steady at a 2.3 to take over second place, while Warner Bros.' The Ellen DeGeneres Show fell 8% to a 2.2 to land in third.
Rounding out the top five, NBCU's Maury and Steve both were stable at their previous season highs of 1.5 and 1.4, respectively.
Debmar-Mercury's Wendy Williams was guest-hosted by Sherri Shepherd, Michael Rapaport and Jerry O'Connell and fell back 8% to a 1.2. Williams, who has been out recovering after illness and injury, returns to her eponymous show on March 4.

Unlike the Oscars, the magazines' next-day coverage of the Grammy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 10, didn't bump the shows. Only one magazine improved for the week: Access, which jumped 23% on Monday, Feb. 11, to a 1.6 one-day household rating, and improved 8% for the week to a 1.4.
Entertainment Tonight and Inside Edition tied for first for the week at a 3.2, with the former down 3% for the week and the latter unchanged. TMZ fell back 8% to a 1.3.
