· The regular-slot debut of "Believe" (1.4/4 in 18-49, 6.5 million viewers overall from 9-10 p.m. ET) generated NBC's biggest overall audience in the slot, excluding sports and the Golden Globes, since Jan. 6, 2013 (a special Sunday premiere of "The Biggest Loser"). In 18-49, the 1.4 rating is NBC's top result in the hour excluding sports and Golden Globes since Jan. 5. Versus NBC's non-sports averages in the time period last year, "Believe" is running within 0.2 of a point in 18-49 (1.4 vs. 1.6, L+SD) and in total viewers is up versus last season's non-sports slot average by 29% (6.505 million vs. 5.033 million).

· From 7-9 p.m. ET, a "Best of the Blind Auditions" episode of "The Voice" (1.4/4 in 18-49, 5.3 million viewers overall) grew from its first hour to its second in all key measures, up 42% in adults 18-49 (to a 1.7 rating from a 1.2), up 40% in adults 25-54 (2.1 vs. 1.5), up 50% in men 25-54 (1.8 vs. 1.2) and up 39% or 1.7 million persons in total viewers (6.2 million vs. 4.5 million).
