With strong numbers across the night, ABC won Friday in Total Viewers and Adults 18-49. Shark Tank was Friday's #1 TV show with young adults and Last Man Standing was the night's most-watched show overall. In addition, 20/20 stood as Friday's top-rated newsmagazine in Adults 18-49 and Adults 25-54 (3rd week in a row) over NBC's Dateline and Rock Center with Brian Williams.

During the 8 o'clock hour, ABC's Last Man Standing and Malibu Country ranked #1 in Adults 18-49.

At 9pm, ABC's Shark Tank built on its lead (+36%) in Adults 18-49 to win its hour by 27% over its nearest competition (NBC's Dateline). The ABC unscripted series was also the most-watched TV show from 9-10pm. Continuing to deliver its best season ever, Shark Tank increased over the same night last year by nearly 1 million viewers and by 19% in Adults 18-49

Friday's #1 newsmagazine, ABC's 20/20 won the 10 o'clock hour by wide margins in Adults 18-49 and Adults 25-54.
