TBS

Continuing its march toward a first-place finish for the quarter, TBS chalked up another weekly win as basic cable's #1 network in primetime delivery of adults 18-34 and adults 18-49.

The Big Bang Theory showed no signs of slowing down last week as it once again dominated the charts with nine of basic cable's Top 10 sitcom telecasts for the week among adults 18-34 and adults 18-49. The show also scored all 10 of basic cable's most-watched sitcom telecasts for the week, with four episodes drawing more than 3 million viewers.

CONAN drew more than 1 million viewers last week in Live + Same Day delivery, with 401,000 adults 18-34 and 663,000 adults 18-49. CONAN continues to be up among key adult demos compared to February as the show seeks to expand its growth trend to five consecutive months. Meanwhile in time-shifted viewing, episodes of CONAN airing the week of Feb. 20 climbed to 1.2 million viewers in Live + 7, with 472,000 adults 18-34 and 766,000 adults 18-49.

TBS's weekend plays of the comedy blockbuster The Hangover combined with a Sunday presentation of the hit Old School to give TBS all five of basic cable's Top 5 movie telecasts for the week among adults 18-34 and adults 18-49. The Saturday 8 p.m. telecast of The Hangover topped the charts as basic cable's most-watched movie of the week, with more than 2.4 million viewers.
