[via press release from NBC]

Tuesday Results:

* From 10-11 p.m. ET, "Smash" (0.9/3 in 18-49, 2.9 million viewers overall) is currently up 0.1 of a point or 13 percent versus last week's official-national 0.8 rating in 18-49 and up 0.2 of a point or 29 percent versus last week's 0.7 in these preliminary fast-affiliate ratings. Note that this week's lead-in for "Smash" is down 22 percent week to week (to a 0.7 for an encore "New Normal," down from last week's 0.9 for an original). "Smash" is currently building on this week's lead-in by 29 percent or 0.2 of a point.

* Note that "Smash" continues to add an exceptional amount of viewership via time-shifting, with last week's 18-49 rating growing by 77% or 0.58 of a point going from these next-day "live plus same day" ratings to "live plus three day" results (to a 1.33 from a 0.75). In that slot, last week's "Golden Boy" went up 16% from L+SD to L+3 (to a 1.89 from a 1.63, 0.26 of a point) and "Body of Proof" grew by 42% (1.78 vs. 1.25, 0.53 of a point).

* At 8 p.m. ET, a rebroadcast "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" averaged a 0.9/3 in 18-49 and 3.9 million viewers overall, and at 8:30, an original telecast of "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" delivered a 1.0/3 in 18-49 and 3.7 million viewers overall.

* Despite this week's startup of Daylight Saving Time and this week's debut in the hour of Fox's "Hell's Kitchen," both half-hours of "Off Their Rockers" finished within a tenth of a point of last week's 18-49 rating and both "Off Their Rockers" half-hours were up week to week in total viewers, with the 8 p.m. encore up versus last week by 9 percent (3.877 million viewers vs.3.557 million) and the 8:30 original up by 5 percent (3.747 million vs. 3.559 million).

* At 9 p.m. ET, an encore telecast of "Go On" averaged a 0.8/2 in 18-49 and 2.6 million viewers overall), and at 9:30 p.m. ET, a rebroadcast of "The New Normal" delivered a 0.7/2 in 18-49 and 2.2 million viewers overall. Last night's "New Normal" retained 88 percent of its 18-49 lead-in from "Go On," and built on its lead-in by 13 percent among women 18-49 (to a 0.9 from a 0.8).
