Monday Results:

NBC is #1 for the night among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox in 18-49 with a 48 percent margin over #2 (with a 3.4 rating vs. a 2.3 for Fox).

* From 8-10:01 p.m. ET, "The Voice" (4.1 rating, 11 share in adults 18-49, 12.5 million viewers overall) delivered the #1 rating of the night in 18-49 by a 52 percent margin over the #2 show (2.7/8 for CBS's "How I Met Your Mother"). "The Voice" won last night's time period in every key demographic among ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox and led the slot in 18-49 by a 71 percent margin over CBS's original comedies (2.4), by 78 percent over Fox's original dramas (2.3) and by 105 percent over ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" (2.0).

"Revolution" is currently running within 1 percent of last week in total viewers (5.809 million vs. 5.883 million).

* "Revolution" is up 25 percent versus NBC's average in the time period last season in 18-49 rating (2.0 vs. 1.6, L+SD non-sports) and up 14 percent in total viewers (5.809 million vs. 5.106 million).

* Note that "Revolution" is a highly time-shifted show, with its April 8 telecast growing by 69 percent when going from these next-day "live plus same day" ratings (2.20) to its "live plus seven day" result (3.71).
