    NEW YORK (AP) --

    CBS dominated in the ratings last week with a winning slate of dramas and comedies as well as a Republican presidential debate, which ranked fourth.

    “The Walking Dead,” airing on cable’s AMC, claimed third place. But when only broadcast networks are included, CBS swept the top 10 positions. It’s a feat no network has accomplished in at least a decade, according to CBS.

    Season-to-date, CBS is first in viewers in prime time with an average 11.74 million viewers, according to the Nielsen Co.

    During this relatively stable week with no series premieres and few specials, CBS averaged 9.41 million viewers. ABC and NBC were tied for a lukewarm second place with 5.07 million while Fox had 4.77 million, Univision had 1.81 million, the CW had 1.72 million, ION Television had 1.26 million and Telemundo had 1.09 million.

    TNT was the week’s most popular cable network, averaging 2.37 million viewers in prime time. Fox News Channel had 2.33 million, and AMC – bolstered by “The Walking Dead” – had 1.96 million.

    NBC’s “Nightly News” topped the evening newscasts with an average of 9.4 million viewers. ABC’s “World News Tonight” had 9.2 million and the “CBS Evening News” had 7.8 million viewers.
