Monday Results (NBC carried NFL football in Charlotte):

NBC ranks #1 on Monday night among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in adults 18-49, winning six of six half-hours among those networks.

NBC won its 12th consecutive in-season Monday night in adults 18-49 among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox and 10th in-season Monday, NBC's longest Monday winning streak in-season in the 25-year history of Nielsen's people meter sample (since September 1987).

* From 8-10:01 p.m. ET, "The Voice" (4.2 rating, 10 share in adults 18-49, 12.2 million viewers overall) delivered the #1 rating of the night on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in adults 18-49, making it Monday's top entertainment telecast for a 12th week in a row. "The Voice" topped CBS's comedy lineup from 8-10 p.m. by a margin of 20 percent (with a 4.2 rating vs. a 3.5) and beat ABC's 8-10 p.m. competition of "Dancing With the Stars" and season premiere of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" by 110 percent (4.2 vs. 2.0).

* "The Voice" is currently up versus the prior week by 14 percent in 18-49 rating (4.2 vs. 3.7) and 15 percent or 1.6 million persons in total viewers (12.185 million vs. 10.597 million), pending updates. "The Voice" is also currently up 11 percent versus its rating for the fourth Monday live telecast of its prior cycle (3.8 on April 23).

* At 10:01 p.m. ET, "Revolution" (2.9/8 in adults 18-49, 8.7 million viewers overall) currently ranks #1 in the time period on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in adults 18-49 and all other key demographics. "Revolution" is up 81 percent versus NBC's average in the time period last season in 18-49 rating (2.9 vs. 1.6, L+SD non-sports) and up 70 percent in total viewers (8.704 million vs. 5.106 million).

* "Revolution" is currently up versus the prior week by 12 percent in 18-49 rating (2.9 vs. 2.6), for its highest rating since October 29 (pending updates). In total viewers, "Revolution" is currently up 24 percent week to week (8.704 million vs. 7.020 million)

* Note that "Revolution" has established itself as a highly time-shifted show, with last week's telecast delivering a 58 percent gain going from "live plus same day" ratings (2.57) to "live plus three days" (4.05).

In Late-Night Metered Markets Monday night (the New York market is excluded from these averages):
