[via press release from NBC]

Monday Results:

NBC wins the night in 18-49 among the Big 4 by a season-high +35% margin (3.5 vs. 2.6 for #2 CBS), stretching its lead among those networks for a third straight week -- up from a +27% margin last week (3.3 vs. 2.6, based on unrevised Nielsens), +20% two weeks ago (3.6 vs. 3.0) and +6% during premiere week (3.7 vs. 3.5).

· "The Voice" (3.9/11 in 18-49, 13.0 million viewers overall from 8-10 p.m. ET) grew by +8% versus last week's 3.6 in these preliminary fast-nationals ratings and by +3% versus last week's corrected official-national 3.8. In total viewers, "The Voice" is up +3% 12.974 million vs. 12.582 million). Note that last night's 8-9 p.m. ET competition was up by 31% on CBS and 20% on Fox versus the same night last year, with CBS growing thanks to "The Big Bang Theory" (3.8 vs. the year-ago 2.9) and Fox up with "Gotham" (2.4 vs. the year-ago 2.0).

· "The Voice" led the time period among the Big 4 in adults 18-49 and most other key measures, including total-viewer wins over "Dancing With the Stars" (12.5 million) and CBS's 8-10 p.m. lineup (12.6 million), pending updates. "The Voice" delivered its most-watched Monday episode since its season premiere on Sept. 22 (13.2 million).

· Through its first four weeks this fall, "The Voice" has delivered the show's four highest Monday 18-49 ratings since March 17, as well as the show's four biggest Monday overall audiences since March 24.

· "The Blacklist" (2.8/8 in 18-49, 9.8 million viewers overall from 10-11 p.m. ET) ranks as the #1 drama of the night on the Big 4 in 18-49 on a highly competitive evening that includes "Gotham," "Scorpion," "Sleepy Hollow," "Castle" and "NCIS: LA." "The Blacklist" won the hour among ABC, CBS and NBC in virtually all key measures, beating ABC's "Castle" by a +40% margin (2.8 vs. 2.0) and CBS's "NCIS: LA" by +75% (2.8 vs. 1.6).

· "The Blacklist" is up week to week by +8% in adults 18-49 (to a 2.8 rating from a 2.6), to match its high since Sept. 22 when its season premiere earned a 3.5.

· L+3: "The Blacklist" (4.24 rating in adults 18-49, 15.124 million viewers overall) grew by +60% in 18-49 (to a 4.24 from a 2.65) and 5.057 million viewers overall (to 15.124 million from 10.067 million) going from L+SD to L+3. "The Blacklist" was the #1 drama of the night in L+3 adult 18-49 rating and increased its 18-49 growth for a second straight week, to +60% this week from +54% last week from +44% two weeks ago.

· L+7: The Sept. 22 "Blacklist" season premiere set a new L+7 series high in total viewers, growing to 19.334 million viewers in L+7, up 6.782 million persons from its "live plus same day" result of 12.552 million. The show's previous L+7 record was 18.279 million for the series premiere on Sept. 23, 2013. The 6.782 million is a "Blacklist" series record for biggest increase going from L+SD to L+7. The Sept. 22 telecast also set a new L+7 series record in adults 18-49, achieving a 5.52, up 2.06 of a rating point or +60% (5.52 vs. 3.46). The previous "Blacklist" L+7 high in 18-49 was 5.49 on Sept. 23 and Sept. 30, 2013.
