[via press release from NBC]

NBC WINS MONDAY AMONG THE BIG 4 IN 18-49 WITH THE #1 SHOW OF THE NIGHT, 'THE VOICE'

'THE NIGHT SHIFT' MATCHES LAST WEEK'S RATING AND IS CURRENTLY FINISHING WITHIN 0.1 OF THE TIME PERIOD LEAD AMONG ABC, CBS & NBC, VERSUS LAST WEEK'S 0.3 DEFICIT

Monday Primetime Results:

· "The Voice" (2.5/8 in 18-49, 10.3 million viewers overall from 8-10:01 p.m. ET) ranked as the #1 show of the night on the Big 4 in adults 18-49, as well as adults 18-34, adults 25-54 and all key adult-female demos.

· "The Voice" is currently running within 0.1 of the comparable third Monday live telecast of the prior cycle (2.6 on Nov. 24) and is up +7% versus that fall telecast in total viewers (10.276 million vs. 9.600 million) -- note that last night's "Voice" is close to rounding up in 18-49 (currently a 2.54 in these preliminary fast-affiliate ratings).

· "The Voice" will add significant audience via time-shifting -- last week's "Voice" grew by +22% in 18-49 rating going from "live plus same day" to "live plus three day" Nielsens (from a 2.89 rating to a 3.54) and by 1.7 million viewers overall (from 11.0 million to 12.7 million).

· "The Night Shift" (1.3/4 in 18-49, 5.5 million viewers overall from 10:01-11 p.m. ET) is currently matching last week's rating in adults 18-49 (1.3 vs. 1.3) and is up slightly in total viewers (5.526 million vs. 5.524 million), pending updates.

· "The Night Shift" is currently running within 0.1 of the slot lead among ABC, CBS and NBC in adults 18-49, pending updates, reducing a deficit that stood at 0.3 in official nationals last week (1.3 vs. 1.6 for CBS's "NCIS: Los Angeles" on April 13).

· "The Night Shift" will add substantial viewership via time-shifting -- the prior week's "Night Shift" increased by +31% in 18-49 going from L+SD to L+3 (1.31 to 1.71). In total viewers, "Night Shift" grew by 1.4 million persons (from 5.5 million to 6.9 million).
