Bruce Willis and Katy Perry brought the laughs – and the music – on the latest episode of Saturday Night Live and, while it was a winner with other networks, it was no match for last week’s show with Miley Cyrus.

Deadline has the exact figures.

“[It] scored a 4.3/11 in metered-market households, and a 2.2/10 in adults 18-49 in the Local People Meters. Yes, the Willis/Perry SNL ranked as the No. 1 telecast of the night on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in the demo 18-49 in the Local People Meters, outscoring all primetime programs on those networks, per usual,” the publication says.

The previous episode had Miley Cyrus as both host and musical guest, and it went to rival Tina Fey’s season premiere in terms of ratings.

“[With Miley] SNL drew a 4.5 rating in the metered-market households and a 2.7 in adults 18-49 in the Local People Meters,” the same media outlet notes.

Below is Bruce Willis’ opening monolog: it included a few nice words about his family, and a harmonica duet with his long lost son that he never knew he had.
