Wednesday Primetime Results:

TIME-SHIFTING: Note that last week in L+3, "Revolution" added 55% to its 18-49 rating and "SVU" added 54%.

The last time "Revolution" topped last night's 1.4 was when it earned a 1.5 on Oct. 9. Last night's "Revolution" improved by 14% on NBC's time-period average in the slot last season in total viewers (5.139 million vs. 4.509 million).

· L+3: The Nov. 6 "Revolution" added 55% or 0.79 of a point to its next-day "live plus same day" 18-49 rating (to a 2.23 in L+3 from a 1.44 in L+SD) and in total viewers, added 41% or 2.127 million persons (7.335 million vs. 5.208 million. The 0.79 increase going from last week's L+SD to L+3 rating is "Revolution's" biggest 18-49 lift of the season, giving the show its top L+3 rating in five weeks (since Oct. 2).

· From 9-10:01 p.m. ET, "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" (1.6/4 in 18-49, 6.1 million viewers overall) locked up its top 18-49 and total-viewer results since Oct. 16. In 18-49, "SVU" grew week to week by 7% in 18-49 rating (1.6 vs. 1.5) and by 14% versus the prior original telecast before that (1.6 vs. 1.4 on Oct. 23).

The 0.83 increase going from last week's L+SD rating to L+3 is the second biggest ever for "Law & Order: SVU" behind the 0.90 for this season's premiere.
