Monday Primetime Results (Note that ABC carried NFL football in the Boston and Buffalo markets):

NBC ranks #1 for Monday night among the Big 4 networks in adults 18-49 and nearly all other key demographics, with "The Voice" and "Blindspot" leading six of six half-hours among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in 18-49.

It's the 17th Monday in a row that NBC has ranked #1 or tied for #1 among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in 18-49.

"The Voice" (2.5/8 in 18-49, 10.2 million viewers overall from 8-10 p.m. ET):

· Is the #1 program of the night on the Big 4 in adults 18-49 and other key demos.

· Wins the time period among the Big 4 and other key demos.

· Will add substantial viewership via time-shifting and VOD - last week's "Voice" increased by +18% in 18-49 rating going from "live plus same day" to "live plus three day" Nielsens (from a 3.00 rating to a 3.53) and by 1.8 viewers overall (from 11.2 million to 13.0 million).

· In its 10 weeks on the schedule, has delivered NBC's 10 highest ratings in the slot, excluding sports, in the past year (since Nov. 17, 2014, 2.2 with the premiere of "State of Affairs").

· "Blindspot" delivers heavy time-shifting and VOD viewership. Last week's "Blindspot":

· Grew by +63% in 18-49 rating going from L+SD to L+3 ratings (2.13 to 3.47) and by 4.2 million viewers overall (7.7 million to 11.9 million), to generate the #1 increases of the night on the Big 4 in 18-49 rating (+1.34) and total viewers (+4.181 million).

· Retained 96% of the prior week's total-viewer gain (4.181 million vs. 4.361 million), which was the biggest L+3 lift for any broadcast or cable program of last week, including AMC's "Walking Dead" (+4.153 million).

· Upscale: "Blindspot" is generating a strong upscale audience, indexing at a 124 among adults 18-49 living in home with $100K+ incomes ("most current," including L+3). Last week's telecast was the night's most upscale scripted show on the Big 4 (108 index, L+SD).
