ENCORES OF "THE TONIGHT SHOW" OUTPERFORM ABC, CBS TIMESLOT COMPETITION IN 18-49 AND OTHER KEY DEMOS FOR WEEK OF APRIL 13-17

Fallon Bests Letterman's Week of Originals and Kimmel's Week of Three Originals and Two Rebroadcasts; Meyers Encores Tops Corden's Week of Originals in All Key Demos

NEW YORK - April 23, 2015 - For the week of April 13-17, five encore telecasts of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" have outrated CBS's original week of "Late Show with David Letterman" and ABC's week of three first-runs and two encores of "Jimmy Kimmel Live" in adults 18-49 and other key demographics.

At 12:35 a.m. ET, rebroadcasts of "Late Night with Seth Meyers" beat CBS's week of "Late Late Show with James Corden" originals in all key demographics - adults, men and women 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54.

For the week, Fallon's encores outdelivered Kimmel and "Late Show" in adults, men and women 18-49; adults, men and women 25-54; and other key demos. His margin over Kimmel in adults 18-49 was +22% (0.79 vs. 0.65) and the advantage over Letterman was +49% (0.79 vs. 0.65).
