CBS's 30-day multi-platform audiences for premiere week registered big jumps, especially NCIS and THE BIG BANG THEORY, which both soared to more than 26 million viewers with the addition of 7-day DVR playback, video-on-demand and online streaming, according to Nielsen, Rentrak and CBS Interactive.

· NCIS' live plus same day audience swelled to 26.18 million viewers (+31% vs. live +same day).

· THE BIG BANG THEORY soared to 26.13 million (+38%).

· Freshman comedy MOM gained +72% (13.77m from 7.99m)

"Viewers are now more able to discover new programs, catch up on missed episodes of these programs, and never miss an episode of their favorite programs," said David Poltrack, Chief Research Officer, CBS Corporation, President, CBS VISION.

"As we saw last season with ELEMENTARY, the combination of DVR playback, VOD and streaming has allowed the most popular new and continuing broadcast network programs to continually add to their base of viewers throughout the year. This season we already are seeing a substantially greater use of time-shifting by viewers to expand their viewing horizons, leading to larger overall audiences for the most popular programs, including both the established hits and the hot newcomers," said Poltrack.
