Between "Grey's Anatomy," "Desperate Housewives" and "Private Practice," ABC placed the Top 3 TV series of the sweep with Women 18-49. ABC's "V" and "Modern Family" registered as the Top 2 freshman series during November in Adults 18-49.

� 10 o'clock Hour (M-F Live + Same Day): During November, ABC is up in the 10 o'clock hour during the week in both Total Viewers (+11% - 8.3 million vs. 7.5 million) and Adults 18-49 (+14% - 2.5/7 vs. 2.2/6).
