It was another disappointing downward slide for Megyn Kelly this week, as her NBC news magazine once again decreased in total viewers.

'Sunday Night With Megyn Kelly' pulled in just 3.1million viewers according to Nielsen, matching its previous low in the key demo of adults 18 to 49 with a .4 rating and a 2 share.

On her most recent episode, Kelly spoke with victims of sexual harassment working in Silicon Valley while NBC News reporter Katy Turr reported on the Trump administration's current Russia scandal.

This is the fifth straight episode that has posted a loss in total viewers since Kelly premiered her show in early June.

The total audience for Kelly's show on Sunday was half the number she pulled in for her premiere, with 6.1 million viewers watching her sit down with Vladimir Putin.

'Sunday Night' was beat once again by repeats of both 'America's Funniest Home Videos' and '60 Minutes,' with the ABC comedy hour actually beating the CBS staple in the key demo.

'Funniest' got 4.25 million viewers, which was good for a .7 rating and 3 share in the key demo.

'60 Minutes' still won the hour in total viewers with 5.9 million homes tuning in for the program.

This latest slip in viewers comes during the same week that it was announced Kelly's morning show would premiere September 25 on NBC.

The show also scored over 500,000 less viewers and had a lower share in the key demo than a rerun of 'Dateline' that aired in the time slot one week prior, over Fourth of July holiday weekend.

Kelly did however pull in the highest numbers of the night for NBC, who had less than 3million people tune in to repeats of 'The Wall' at 8pm and a two-hour episode of 'America Ninja Warrior' at 9pm.

And while ratings have not yet been released, it is safe to say that the premiere of the HBO hit series 'Gamw of Thrones' won the night on Sunday.
