"Splash" (8:00-9:00 p.m.)

In the 8:00 p.m. hour opposite CBS' "NCIS" and the first hour of NBC's 2-hour "The Voice," ABC's season finale of "Splash" was up 11% week to week in Adults 18-49 (1.0/3 vs. 0.9/3). Extreme skier Rory Bushfield was the winner of the ABC celebrity diving competition.

A note about increasing DVR penetration and year-to-year rating comparisons: Year-to-year rating comparisons based on the Live + Same Day data stream are distorted by the level of DVR penetration in the Nielsen sample, which has jumped up to 48% currently, from 44% at the same point in 2012. More viewers are watching shows on their own timetables, which may not be reflected in the overnight next day numbers. The only truly valid year-to-year comparison would be one based on the Live + 7 Day metric, once those stats are released by Nielsen.
