Ratings: ‘DWTS’ Disney Night Allows ABC to Reclaim Top Slot in Total Viewers
Powered by “The Voice,” NBC won another Monday in the key 18-49 demographic — though ABC reclaimed the total-viewer top slot last night. That’s almost entirely because “Dancing With the Stars” Disney Night grew 7 percent from last week’s episode.
Over on third-place CBS, the “2 Broke Girls” season finale slipped slightly among overall audience members. That probably won’t help its case for renewal. Fox’s “24: Legacy” freshman season ender did a bit better versus its own prior episode.
NBC was first in ratings with a 1.6 rating/6 share in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demographic and second in total viewers with an average of 7.9 million, according to preliminary numbers. “The Voice” at 8 p.m. earned a 2.0/7 and 9.4 million viewers. “Taken” at 10 had a 0.9/3 and 4.7 million viewers.
